Dachshunds and their owners from across Ayrshire enjoyed a Hallowe'en party at the weekend.

The event was held at the South Newmoor Estate in Irvine on Sunday and between 60 and 70 dogs turned up to enjoyed the event.

And there were some spooky, cute and sometimes hilarious outfits spotted on the day, which was organised by the Ayrshire Dachshund Group.

There was a large sectioned off pen area for the younger pups who are coming to their first meeting.

That meant owners could carry them around to take everything in and then when ready they can get down in a safe place with pups their own/similar age for a play.
