WE all love our pets - and over the last couple of years they have meant more to us than ever.

Pets become part of the family, they give us unconditional love and they are there for us, no matter what. Whether you have a working dog or a rescue cat, a cute hamster or an elegant horse, these four-legged friends will mean the world to you.

To celebrate our pets this Christmas, the Telegraph & Argus is launching a competition to find our Pet of the Year. All you have to do is click on the link below to send us a photo of your pet, and tell us why they are so special to you. We will choose a winner and they will receive a prize of £50.

So get your pet photos coming in! The closing date is Monday, January 10, 2022.
