Lucy, a three-year-old brindle owned by Polish native Dagmara Sykucka took the fancy dress prize when another edition of the Great Global Greyhound Walk touched down in Edinburgh.

A total of 102 greyhounds, lurchers and other sighthounds took part in the three mile walk from Liberton kennels, Stanedykehead, to highlight awareness of the breeds and show the public what wonderful pets they make.

Originally started in the UK, the event is now global with walks taking place from Auckland to Cape Town; New York to Dublin all on the same day.

Last year 11,819 dogs participated in 35 countries with China and Hungary, amongst others, coming into the fold for the first time.
