Pugs dressed as pumpkins and monsters celebrate Halloween

Love pugs? Love Halloween? Love pugs in fancy dress?

If the answer is yes to these questions, then tomorrow is your lucky day.

Because Manchester Pug Thing, a local community group which rescues and rehomes pugs, is holding a special event.

Last year, over 80 pugs dressed as bumble bees walked through Clayton Vale Country Park with their owners to raise funds for a memorial to the 22 victims of the Manchester Arena bomb.

Tomorrow, they will be doing the same thing but this time the pugs will be dressed as pumpkins, monsters and spiders to celebrate Pugoween.

Probably not one of the scariest things you’ll ever see but definitely one of the cutest.

There’ll be a fancy dress competition to find the best dressed pug plus a cake sale and raffles. And all funds raised will help Manchester Pug Thing pay its growing vet bills.

Sunday 27th October at 11am at Clayton Vale.
