August Leave No Trace Caption Contest: Beer Dog

In appreciation for our readers (and Leave No Trace supporters), together we’re running a weekly caption contest for anyone to participate in. Here’s our take on the first shot… but don’t forget to give us yours in the comments section below!

Normally, people take their dogs for a walk or run to give their canine some healthy exercise. The more adventurous spirits may bring their dogs with them when they hike, bike or swim. But what happens when you bring your dog on a floating trip down a river… and end up drinking too much beer? Does your dog go into protection mode and keep a tight eye on you, reversing the dog/owner roles? Or does he simply roll his eyes (roll over) and laugh (bark) it off? You tell us.

This week’s caption contest is up for all the captions our readers can think of. Just submit a clever comment in the comments section below and hope yours is the best. Four lucky winners will receive a pair of their very own Chaco sandals; a pair of Smartwool socks (not to be worn with said Chacos) and a base layer from Smartwool; as well a Base Camp Duffel bag from The North Face; and a Planet Explore reusable water bottle and seed card. Here’s the weekly contest deal:

Each Tuesday, we’ll post a photo and leave the comments section open to our readers. Every subsequent Tuesday we’ll post a new photo and announce last week’s winner. Submit using the comments section below. Good luck!
