It seems in the past year that community issues concerning pets, specifically dogs, have become increasingly heated. Dog owners want safe areas for their pets to run free while cities want to decrease off-leash areas an increase fines for failure to pick up dog waste. These issues span the country from Boston to Denver.

The basis for creation of the Rascodog line of pet products was to help promote responsible dog ownership and help put an end to some of these problems.

We believe that given the right resources, pet owners will do simple tasks like picking up after their dog. We also know that there are already many owners out there doing their part and going unrecognized. We want to change that by offering a FREE ReadyLeash to the winner of our Rascodog of the Week Contest.

All you have to do is upload a photo of what you think it means to be a responsible dog owner. The winning picture will be featured on the Rascodog blog and featured in out bi-weekly newsletter and the winner will get his own ReadyLeash!

Directions:

1. Upload your photo to our Flickr group at: http://www.flickr.com/groups/rascodogresponsible/.
2. Give your photo a caption.
3. Check the blog to see if you’re the winner!
