"We are calling all Dog lovers to sign up to do a 5k walk starting from Destined Foyle Road and walking out the line with their fur babies."
It is £20 to Register for the event and you can do so online at www.hurtni.org.
Your registration fee includes a Paws for Thought T-shirt, Doggie bandana and other treats including a money off voucher for a Human Breakfast and Puppaccino before you set off at sponsors, Brick and Feather Cafe.
