DOG owners are being asked to walk a mile for a good cause this weekend.
Alton-based Dogs for Autism is the first UK charity to specialise in dogs for autistic people and is holding a charity event in Basingstoke on Sunday.
Dog owners are being asked to donate a minimum of £5 and then go for a mass dog walk in War Memorial Park from 4pm.
The charity needs to raise £160,000 to train the six puppies it has this year before it can start training more.
