THE ANNUAL Fun Dog Show held at Manor Farm, Little Habton was a huge success raising a record £998 for Kirby Misperton Parish.

The show which was started over 30 years ago by Winnie Morton to provide a fun day for children and their dogs was taken over when she died by Christopher and Will Tetley.

Christopher said: "We are absolutely thrilled by the result and felt that the owners with their family dogs of all breeds and sizes thoroughly enjoyed their afternoon of competition games."

Will added: "The afternoon began with a barbecue', we had games after the lunch, followed by a musical break and afternoon tea, our thanks must go to Swinton Brass Band, and all the helpers who provided food, judged the classes, and were general 'dogs bodies' we couldn't manage without them and our family who arrive from the South to help with the organisation."
