TODAY is National Dog Day and our readers have been sending in photographs of their own dogs to celebrate.

The day celebrates all breeds and types of dogs – from those who found their forever home as a puppy, to those were lucky enough to be rescued and given a second chance.

The day honours family pets and also those who work so hard to help us, like assistance dogs, medical alert dogs, therapy dogs and police dogs.

We asked you to share photos of you with your dogs - and your response was overwhelming.

You shared pictures of your furry family members with newborns, children and grandparents. They really are part of the family!

Take a look through the gallery to see some of Flintshire and Wrexham's furry friends.
