Over 60 dachshunds and their owners got into the festive spirit at the weekend at a DOOBerS exclusive Christmas Pawrty in Northchurch.
The group, which started as six members on Facebook three years ago and now has over 500 members, hosted the community event – exclusively for dachsies and their owners – at Hill Farm Cafe.
The poochies were so popular, even the pup-arazzi took photos – well, professional photographers from ‘In The Doghouse’ to be more precise.
On Saturday, December 4, 64 dachsies and their human families attended the event, raising over £100 from the dachsie accessory Bring and Buy sale for The Red Foundation – a charity that raises money to rescue and rehome dachshunds of all ages throughout the UK.
Janine Stevenson, one of the DOOBerS admin team, said: “Mother Christmas (me) and my Elf were very busy hosting Secret Santa pressies for the dachsies which was a lot of fun.
“Professional photographers from ‘In The Doghouse’ were busy taking photos of the dogs all afternoon.
“We welcome all Dachsie owners to join our group – we host monthly local walks and meet ups, so not only is it a great opportunity for the dogs to socialise, but also for their owners to meet new friends with a common interest!”
And the leash we could do (geddit) was show you our gallery of the event – it looks like they had a paw-some time!
