National Dog Day is an annual event celebrated on August 26.

National Dog Day was established in 2004 by animal advocate & pet and family lifestyle expert Coleen Paige.

The aim of the awareness day is to raise awareness about the number of dogs that are currently in rescue centres and encourage the adoption of these animals.

Sadly each year millions of dogs become homeless because they are unwanted or their owners are unable to care for them.

National Dog Day aims to encourage people to adopt dogs from shelters and rescue organisations.
