Who’s the cutest dog in Tri-Cities? Vote for your favorite in the first round of our poll

Last week, in search of the cutest dog in Tri-Cities, we asked Tri-City Herald readers to submit photos of their furry friends.

We received over 100 submissions.

Now, it’s up to our subscribers to vote for their favorites.

Preliminary voting has been broken up into three parts. This is only one-third of all submissions, and two more rounds of preliminary voting will be conducted.

The first round is open now and closes Sept. 20 at 11:59 p.m. You can only vote for one dog at a time, but you’re welcome to vote as many times as you’d like. The dogs with the most votes will move on to the next round.

After all voting rounds are completed, the winner will be profiled in the Herald.

Remember: This poll isn’t scientific — it’s for fun!
