		</div><p>Patch, sporting a jean jacket as she strutted down the runway, has been crowned the winner of Drake University’s Beautiful Bulldog Contest.</p>
<p>The two-year-old English bulldog beat 28 other contestants from six states on Monday night to win the top prize.</p>
<p>The bulldog is Drake’s mascot and the contest kicks off the Drake Relays track and field competition happening later this week.</p>
<p>Events will take place at the university’s stadium just west of Des Moines city centre.</p>
<p>Patch’s entry seemed to get a boost when she carefully ambled through a hoop on the runway, bringing cheers from a crowd of spectators.</p>
<p>Her owners, Jennifer Hinton and Joel Kornder of Johnston, Iowa, said they had worked on the hoop routine for months ahead of the competition.</p>
<p>“I heard about the contest when I moved to Des Moines this past summer and I knew I had to enter Patch,” Ms Hinton said.</p>
<p>“She is the epitome of the bulldog breed and we’re so proud of her all the time – but especially today.”</p>
<p>After being named the winner, Patch traded in her denim for a satin cape and crown, befitting her role as the Drake Relays mascot and the university’s bulldog representative for the next year.</p>
<p>Patch is a rescue dog and was among nine rescues who competed.</p>
