It’s the most wonderful time of the year — our annual dog days of summer reader photo collection. We get more pictures of dogs than we do mothers on Mother’s Day (sorry, moms). In fact, dogs are even more popular than Santa (please don’t put us on the naughty list). Nearly 200 readers sent in photos showing how their dogs beat the heat, from ice cream and boating to lounging poolside and lakeside. Even if you’re not a dog person, we hope you “paws” to take a look at a few of them.
