BANK holiday Monday (May 4) provided the paw-fect day out for four-legged fur babies and their owners at Fun Family Dog Show at Hampton Ferry.

From midday, creatures great and small took part in a variety of ten novel categories, including the waggiest tail, cutest puppy and golden oldie.

Their human counterparts enjoyed browsing trade stands and craft stalls and partaking in obligatory refreshments.

“Special mention to our judges, the mayor and mayoress of Evesham, and all the stallholders for attending.”
