Dog fanatics from all over the world come together on social media to celebrate their love, affection, and appreciation for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and ages. As dog lovers ourselves, that's easy enough to understand.
The group has more than 1.8 million members, all who love dogs, and they all follow one simple rule: don't share photos of dogs, you know, whether it's your own dog or one that you've seen around before.
That's it. Plain and simple. But then again, the best things in life are simple.
With so many members actively involved, the group guarantees something new involving random dog encounters every day, and you will never be bored. We have compiled a list of 50 of the best photos from the group, and we know you are going to enjoy them.

"Dogspotting is a game, sport, and lifestyle of spotting random dogs you encounter," the group admins wrote, inspiring people to share their own or familiar pooches in Dogspotting Society instead.
To be a good dog spotter, you should avoid the so-called "low hanging fruit" – the places where you would expect to see dogs (vets, groomers, parks, etc.)
People usually share photos and videos, but the group admins also accept text spots (explanation of the who, what, when, and where of the pup you spotted) and art spots (creative depictions of the "target").
You won't find any politics in this group. There are no debates about ear crops, adopt vs. shop, or other related subjects on the group, too. "Keep in mind spotters do not have control over the dogs they spot. Be respectful!" the admins say.
