THERE was a really festive atmosphere at Bridport Dog Training Society when the Society’s Christmas Party took place at St Mary’s Church Hall in South Street.

Head trainer Grayham Rosamund led the dogs and their owners though some festive games and quizzes, with a prize each for the winners.

When the food was served the dogs were not left out – they have their own special Christmas Pudding every year, put together through the culinary skills of June Goodburn, chair of the Society.

The picture shows the dogs and their owners lined up for a Christmas race with Santa.
