About どれ
どれ is from the same family of words as これ, それ, and あれ. These words are called こそあど言葉 in Japanese. Unlike the other 3, which all point to a specific thing, words starting with ど are designed for enquiring about something unknown. どれ can roughly be translated as 'which' in English, and is used for enquiring about a group (of 3 or more things).
From these examples, we can see that the particle が is often used with どれ, especially when preceding questions. However, when どれ follows a noun, は will be used.
When there are only two choices to select between, どちら + の, or どっち + の will be used instead of どれ. This is a habit that has become part of the language over time, and was not originally how these words were used.
