Caption This! Dalmatian at Attention

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

We had more than a dozen captions submitted for the photo of a big dog shielding a smaller dog in last week's Caption This contest.

The Patch judges awarded title of best caption to Yasmine for her Dirty Dancing reference of: "Nobody puts Baby in a corner."

Both Yasmine and Betsy, who submitted the photo, will get a digital copy of the photo with the caption affixed. You can click on the thumbnail above to see what it looks like.

For next week, we've got a photo of a dalmatian sitting very primly in an arm chair.

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.

It's hard to tell where I end and the pillow begins!

Mom told me not to jump on the couch and get my spots everywhere.

I'm so tired of football. Why can't Martha Stewart be on ?

Mom gave me this pillow to show that this is MY chair!
Katie Sweeney November 26, 2012 at 02:29 pm
I know you warned us NOT to sit in the chair, but have you seen my brother?

Does this pillow make my butt look big?

Do these match?
M Hall November 26, 2012 at 08:51 pm
So.... that's what humans do to retired Dalmations... how depressing.
M Hall November 26, 2012 at 08:53 pm
If I sit here and look human....maybe someone will toss me the remote control.

Don't talk to me! I'm watching the Housewives on Bravo!
Linda Wallace November 26, 2012 at 09:53 pm
I'm tired of everyone always sending me presents with dots on them.
kathy frank November 26, 2012 at 10:16 pm
Don't make eye contact......I will just blend in.

This chair is spot on!

I think of all the times that I used to ride on the Fire Engines. Now all I do is watch them go by.

. . . but my given name is Dorothy.
Jill May November 27, 2012 at 01:58 am
If I sit perfectly still on this pillow, maybe no one will notice me.

Outside the window ... I spot DANGER! Danger, Will Robinson !!!
Pete Jemian November 27, 2012 at 09:01 am

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.
