It was close encounters of the canine kind at Queen's Park on Sunday as Royal City dog lovers came together for the 11th annual Doggy Fun Day.

Record photographer Jason Lang was on hand to capture all the action.

The day included a variety of demonstrations, displays, games and contests for canines and their human companions, as well as performances by the Royal City Rockets dog agility team.
