Welcome to Great British Dogs

You’ve found Great British Dogs, the home of uplifting, heart-warming stories of everyday greatness in the nation’s canine companions – all from genuine dog owners.

The dogs featured on this site may come in all shapes and sizes, and the stories themselves cover everything from the brave and the funny, to rescue dogs and even support dogs. But all have one thing in common: the profound and touching love that dogs can give their humans, and vice versa.

Great British Dogs is sponsored by Winalot® , which has been feeding greatness in the UK’s dogs since 1927. By entering your story on the Great British Dogs site, and uploading a picture, you’ll have the chance to win some brilliant Great British Dogs goodies, including Winalot® pouches. And one lucky winner will be selected by our panel of judges to win an amazing prize: a portrait of your dog by acclaimed artist James Bartholomew worth up to £2,000!

Great British Dogs is now in its fourth year: in the past three years we received more than 7,000 stories from dog owners and you can read a selection of them in our class of 19/22 section.
