26th August 2014 – World Dog Day

Also known as International Dog Day.

We get dogs as companions; as pets.  They rely on us to live – they trust us with their lives, trust us to take care of them. They are loyal, loving, affectionate, and playful.  They are one of the most popular pets in Western culture; with 25% of UK households owning one, and 36.5% of US households owning one.

For International Dog Day, enjoy some images of this popular pet – various breeds, sizes, and ages!
