TASTEFULLY togged out in an array of festive-themed outwear, a sizeable number of Newton Abbot's canines came together today (Saturday, December 6) for the town's dog friendly Christmas carol service.

Lead by the Reverend Gareth Regan the annual, open-air service, back after being curtailed by bad weather last year, took place in Wolborough Street was held in aid of Animals in Distress.

Carols were sung by the choir, dog owners and even some of the dogs - barking along in tune (nearly).
