The event is on Sunday, September 28, at Irchester Country Park, just down the road from the charity’s base at Pine Tree Farm in London Road, Little Irchester.

Animals In Need’s sanctuary manager Annie Marriott said: “The walk will commence at 10.30am from the bottom field behind the café.

"We will set off together and weave our way through the scenic country park for a wonderful relaxed pace walk of approximately one hour, ending up back at the start point.

"The walk is suitable for any dogs who will enjoy being part of a larger group and walking with other dogs and people, but of course if your dog needs a little space, you can spread out to accommodate their needs.

"A donation of £5 per dog attending would be very much appreciated, with everything raised going directly to support the ongoing rescue work at Animals In Need.

"Registration not required, you can just turn up.”

All dogs are to be kept on regular leads.

Animals In Need has been rescuing and re-homing animals across Northamptonshire and beyond for more than three decades.
