The Kennel Club Dog Photographer of the Year rescue category is about promoting the positive attributes of rescue dogs, either currently living in a shelter or at home with a new family. Photographs can be either pedigree or cross breed rescue dogs, all we ask is for the images to show happy and healthy dogs.

Your entry for this category could be of a rehomed rescue dog, dogs enjoying playtime together or capturing a special moment of a dog being rehomed.

The winner of this category will have the opportunity to nominate their favourite rescue dog charity for a £500 donation from the Kennel Club Charitable Trust.

The competition is free and open to any professional or amateur photographers worldwide.
