May 20 marked National Rescue Dog Day and to celebrate the occasion we asked readers to share photos of their beloved rescue dogs.

Big and small, young and old, rescue dogs have brought joy to the lives of their owners.

We were flooded with photos as people were keen to share their love for their furry friends.

Here is a selection of the photos from Star readers.
