The event, organised by York Museums Trust in partnership with York Dog Park, saw a pop-up shopping village created in the park with treats, toys and accessories on sale. There were also information stalls and talks from veterinary experts.
Other photos in our competition, on the theme of 'storytime' showed the Flying Scotsman arriving in Scarborough and a gathering of the Watcher statues in York Minster.
Our winning portrait was of two Ukrainians in York with flowers in their hair, taken by Carys Tew, who has won our £50 first prize.
