Dogs at polling stations is back once again.

In 2015, the trend went viral with pooches being photographed outside polling stations up and down the land.

And as voters head to the polls today to exercise their democratic duty, they are taking their four legged friends with them. 

The Electoral Commission advises that while voters are welcome to bring their dogs, unless they're a guide dog, they may have to be left outside.

Here are just some of our favourite pictures from election day so far.
