WASHINGTON - The Washington Human Society is conducting a "paw poll" to let dogs cast their votes for D.C. mayor.

The poll was conducted Thursday morning at a dog park in northwest Washington.

Each dog voted by eating a bone-shaped biscuit marked with one of the two leading Democrats' names. Bones that represent votes for Mayor Adrian Fenty were green with white polka dots while bones for his main challenger, Vincent Gray, were white with green polka dots.

Spokeswoman Sabrina Fang says some owners didn't agree with their dogs' choice, and some dogs voted more than once because they were extra hungry.

The winner will be revealed Friday on the 5th annual Walk for Animals website. The annual walk will be on Sept. 25 and benefit Humane Society programs.
