The Kennel Club Art Gallery is taking visitors back in time with its compelling exhibition ‘Photography Going to the Dogs.’

Exploring the history of dogs in photography, this unique display showcases a wide range of vintage images depicting man’s best friend from the 1850’s to the 1950’s.

The exhibition was put together with contributions from private collections.

Some of the contributors wish to remain anonymous and we would like to take this opportunity to thank them all of their kindness, generosity and guidance.
