A DORSET dog walking organisation is hosting a spooky trail for owners and their four-legged friends.

Waggy Trails is a dog walking service in Bournemouth that offers dog walking, chaperoning and a pet taxi service.

This year, the pooch business is hosting a 'spook-tacular' walk to celebrate Halloween.

The event will take place at Brown Dog Coffee Shop in Belle Vue Road.

Dog rescue centre, Staffy and Stray Rescue, will also be joining the walk on October 27 at 9am.

Dogs are expected to dress in the spookiest attire from ghostly costume to witches and wizards.

A spokesperson for the event said: “Come and join us on replacing barks with boos  and getting our hairy scary doggies dressed up ready for a Halloween dog walk.

“We will be making our way down to Southbourne beach and walking to Boscombe pier this will take around two hours in total there and back, dress up optional but it would be spook-tacular to see all the doggies looking fur-ocious.”
