PET owners are invited to bring their cherished animal companions to Malvern's Countrywide store to have them photographed as part of a fundraising weekend.

The Malvern store, off the roundabout at the northern end of Worcester Road, is taking part in a company-wide initiative tomorrow (Saturday) and Sunday to raise money for Dogs for the Disabled, which provides specially-trained assistance dogs to children and adults with physical disabilities.

Store manager Shaun Floody said: “Countrywide’s pet events are always very well attended so we’re looking forward to an action-packed weekend. As well as hosting the dog photo shop and a free prize draw, we will have great deals and activities lined up throughout the weekend.

“Pets and their owners will be able to take advantage of free expertise and advice from our trained, AMTRA qualified pet specialists, on everything animal related, ranging from the complexities of worming and flea treatment to feeding and grooming. It will be a great event for the whole family, including all furry and feathered friends. We look forward to seeing you there.
