Caption This! A Clever Hiding Place

In our Caption This contest, we ask you to come up with your funniest caption to this great photo.

We had more than two dozen captions submitted for the photo of a dog sitting patiently in front of a mechanic's sign in last week's Caption This contest.

The Patch judges awarded title of best caption to Ann for: "Just bark your car and I'll take care of it."

Both Ann and the person who submitted the photo will get a digital copy of the photo with the caption affixed. Unfortunately, we lost the identification of the person who uploaded the photo. Please email me if it's you. (Emily.Stone@Patch.com) You can click on the thumbnail above to see what it looks like.

For next week, we’re shaking up the species a bit and adding a squirrel into the mix. (At least, we think it's a squirrel.) You can start submitting your funniest caption ideas now.

Here’s how it works:

* In the comments section below, write in your best idea for a funny caption for this photo. Comments must be in by noon Friday.

* The esteemed Patch judges will pick our favorite and announce it Monday, along with a new photo to caption.

* Both the caption writer and the reader who submitted the photo will get an emailed copy of the captioned photo.

Want to upload your own funny pet photos for future caption consideration? Please do by clicking through to this article.

Did I win? Regardless, keep your prize. I'll just pull the photo off the screen like anybody could instead of hoping to win the big prize.

Procrustes' Foil June 12, 2013 at 02:57 pm
You're right, Patch. This post is barely literate.
Jordan S. Zoot June 13, 2013 at 08:59 am
The writer of the post is illiterate....that is clear. The Evanston Police, in general, do a greatRead More job in this community. There ought be a new category created specifically for membership in a gang that has demonstrated committed acts of violence...it goes back to the first smart thing which Mark Kirk ever said which was locking up each and every one of the 18.5K members of the Gangster Disciples. The second thing that can be done is that each and every law abiding Evanston resident that is legally able to do so should avail themselves of the right to obtain a new Illinois Concealed Carry Permit for a handgun. An armed society is a polite society.
