A SPONSORED walk for rescued dogs has boosted the charity that saved them.
The Durham and District branch of the RSPCA organised a four-mile walk along the nature trail that runs from Houghall College, on the city's outskirts, last Sunday.
About 30 dogs, which the charity took in after they were abandoned, took part along with their new owners.
Committee member Audrey Parkinson said: "We did ever so well and it looks as if the promised money will be at least £1,800.
"It was a wonderful day and everybody enjoyed it. It was wonderful to see all these happy dogs with their happy new owners. We'd like to say thank you to everybody who took part."
Mrs Parkinson said the charity always had dogs and cats that it was trying to re-home. For more details, call 0191-378 0439.
