WE all love them as ‘man’s best friend’ and our readers have been posting photographs of their prize puppies on social media.
Thursday was ‘Puppy Day’ and we asked our readers to send us their favourite shots of their pooches.
Here are just a selection of the shots and a photo gallery full of cute dogs.
If you want to see your dog featured then send them to robert.kelly@nqnw.co.uk
