Prizes will be awarded to the Top 3 Dogs that receive the most votes, in addition to a title and bragging rights.
First Place: Dream Dog
The dog with the most votes will be crowned the "Dream Dog of SLO" for 2026.
The winning dog will be prominently featured on the front label of a beer brewed by THERE DOES NOT EXIST. (Um, rad?!) The dog owner will have the opportunity to collaborate on the label name (subject to approval).
In addition, the winning dog will be featured on the Dream Makers SLO website and other partner websites. The top dog winner may be asked to attend promotional events and be available for interviews by the news media.
Second Place: Daydreamer
The dog with the second highest number of votes will be deemed the "Daydreamer" for 2026 – dreaming of their triumph in 2027!
The second place dog will be featured on the back label of the special brew.
In the event that the first place dog is unable or unwilling to fulfill all of the roles and responsibilities of being the Dream Dog of SLO, the Daydreamer will assume that top title and receive all of the benefits described as Dream Dog.
Third Place: Dream Fetcher
The dog with the third highest number of votes will be deemed the Dream Fetcher for 2026. The third place dog will be featured on the back label of the special brew and plan to fetch the winning title next year!
