A 'Service of Thanksgiving & Blessing of Pets' was held this afternoon at St Anne's Cathedral in Belfast and hundreds of pet owners turned up with their pets including dogs, cats, hamsters and gerbils to take part.

Sharon Warnock was there with the two rescue dogs that she is currently fostering. Henry and Abbot , (pictured), are both unable to walk and were rescued from China by an animal charity.

Both animals were severely maltreated with Henry's back being broken paralysing him from the mid-spine to his back legs. Abbot may be able to walk again eventually but both animals are under the care of the charity and Abbot is currently looking for a good home.

The two dogs get around on specially made frames that are supported by two wheels and Henry is very popular at schools for children with special needs and in hospitals and care homes where he brings joy to the patients and residents.
