PICTURES: Your polling station pets

It's become a fun tradition at election time.

As people make the way to polling stations, so do their dogs.

The hashtag #dogsatpollingstations has grown in popularity over the years on social media - and Dorset Echo readers did not disappoint.

You've loved sharing your polling station pooches with us, so we've given them their very own gallery.

Look at these adorable pets! If you'd like to share with us, email newsdesk@dorsetecho.co.uk
