DOG lovers and their canines took the lead in raising cash for charity.
Hundreds of owners and their pet pooches, ranging from poodles to pitbulls, took part in the sponsored walk at the Landgon Hills Country Park.
They braved the drizzly weather to take part in the annual event, which raises cash for Basildon-based St Luke's Hospice.
The walk, which took place on Sunday, has become a popular feature in the hospice's fundraising calendar.
