The Putney branch of Snappy Snaps has donated £300 in prize-winnings to the Blue Cross animal charity after promoting Take Your Dog to Work Day earlier this year.

The High Street store won the money in a nationwide competition to find the best window publicising the event. Snappy Snaps' display contained all things dog-related photographs, T-shirts, jigsaws and toy dogs.

Customers were also encouraged to purchase photo enlargements of their pets, with £1 from each one going to charity.

Store manager Hermione Peach said: "We were pleased with the way our display looked, so we were absolutely delighted when we were told we had won.

"We all agreed that we should donate the prize money to the Blue Cross because we're all nuts about animals and we support the excellent work they do."
