Thank you for following along on this blog today. We’ve loved seeing your dog picture submissions and enjoyed reading your comments. I’m signing off now, with a last batch of your dogs at polling stations pics. Have a good evening!
Jon has sent in an adorable picture of Wookie, the dog, taking a well-earned rest in Glynde, East Sussex, “after an eventful six weeks of canvassing”.
Jamie and Kyra have shared a picture of their miniature dachshund Ralph at a polling station in Brixton this morning. Jamie says that Ralph is “clearly not too happy about it” as he’s “usually super smiley”.
This is Burt at Darren’s local polling station in Chesterfield.
Jen has shared a picture of her two dogs, Lily and Jess, at Stapehill village hall in Dorset. I’ve been informed that Lily enjoyed exploring on her first trip to the polling station and Jess “never wants to pose nicely”.
Fozzie the pyredoodle is pictured looking very happy outside a polling station in the Folkestone and Hythe constituency. Fozzie’s owner, Adam, says “he’d love to be put on the Guardian’s general election live page”. Apparently, Fozzie is a “longtime reader”.
“This is Zac the German wirehired pointer at his first general election since he came to live with us in Rockcliffe on the Solway Firth,” says Steve. “He was not impressed [that] he had to wait outside the village hall as he’s usually at the bar. I explained that it’s only, hopefully, every five years.”
Tom has shared this picture of his mum’s dog, Riley the cockapoo. Lovely.
