With the temperature soaring and your Phoenix Mercury on the rise, the dog days of summer are officially here.

The defending WNBA Champions will be their hosting conference rival L.A. Sparks on Thursday, July 17, at US Airways Center and you can participate in the Dog Days of Summer promotion.

Send us pictures of your dog (or other pet) donning a Mercury scarf, hat or otherwise supporting the team. We will then post your pictures in a photo gallery with other dog fans.
