If your votes in Week 4 of the competition are any indication, you're getting tired of this competition. Saturday morning when I voted for Greta, she had only 119 votes. That's not going to help us win any cash for the Guilford County Animal Shelter. I understand we've been going at this for awhile, but I'm not asking a whole lot of you guys. Just one click of the mouse a day.

One piece of good news is that we're still way ahead of Fox 8 reporter Roxanna Haynes' miniature schnauzer Layla in the votes every week. Keep at it, Pet Shop blog readers. Let's stay ahead of Layla.

Week 5 of the competition is now underway and closes Saturday night. You can vote every day (and please do). Pass this on to all your friends and family. The All American Pet Brands' Cutest Dog Competition continues until Oct. 24, and each week a winner receives $500. If either Layla or Greta wins, we will donate that money to the shelter.

Oh, the competition judges are cracking down on what they are calling "fraudulent" voter accounts. That would be people using multiple e-mail accounts to vote more than once. Even though it's not spelled out in the rules that you can't do that, apparently it's a no-no. So you can only vote once a day. But please do!
