A doggy day creche has put on its own nativity show for the pooches in its care.

The EveryDog creche on the Mid Kent Business Park in Sortmill Road, Snodland, dressed its four-legged charges to play the role of Jesus and Mary and the Wise Men.

Luke Sutton, who co-owns the business with Steve Humphreys, said: "This is a second year in business and we really wanted to do something special this year and we kept being teased by our customers about how difficult it would be to pull off. It was certainly a challenge but they are all so well-trained which made our live's much easier!"

Our photo shows on the left, the Three Wise Men played by Akilah, Reggie and Bailey, above them is Jammy as Mary, next to her is Bear as Joseph. Frankie plays the Angel Gabriel next to Bud as the donkey.

At the front, Benji has the starring role as Baby Jesus.

The doggy day creche takes in 30 dogs a day of all shapes and sizes and gives them the opportunity to have a day of play and socialising in their unique, non-caged environment.

The centre is open between 6.30am and 7pm Monday to Friday, and between 9am and 6pm at weekends. It is even open on Boxing Day. Details from www.everydog.co.uk
