DOG owners are invited to join a hospice charity fundraiser for their doggie fancy dress called ‘Halloween Paws Spooktacular’.

Countess Mountbatten Hospice Charity is hosting a Halloween dog walk on Sunday, 28 October, at Lakeside Country Park, Eastleigh.

Tickets cost £5 per dog, which are available on the charity’s website, and the hospice encourage both humans and dogs alike to dress up and get involved. The walk is in aid of raising money to help the local hospice, who care for people with life-limiting illnesses and their families.

The event includes a themed dog walk around the park as well as a doggie bandana to wear on the day and a goodie bag filled with treats for after you have finished the walk.

To purchase tickets go to cmhcharity.org.uk/paws-spooktackular. Ticket sales end on 31 August.
