A Middlesbrough nightclub will welcome four-legged friends to its dancefloor for a 'doggy disco' on July 13.

The family-friendly event invites dog owners to bring their pets along for a party packed with entertainment for dogs and humans alike hosted at Popworld.

According to the organisers, all friendly socialised dogs are welcome, with scheduled sessions designed particularly for Cockapoos, Dachshunds and puppies.

Leanne Ferguson, an event manager at Popworld, imagined the dog parties after initially coming up with the idea to have her Cockapoo Alfie socialise more.

Ms Ferguson said: "The sessions last 75 minutes which is like an intense walk for them.

"It is a big sensory experience for them socialising with other like-minded dogs and people."
