A carol service with a difference has been hosted in Christ Church  Cathedral in Dublin, for therapy dogs and their owners.

The performance is put on each year to celebrate the work the animals do in visiting people with special needs.

It's known as the Peata Therapy Dog Carol Service, organised by Peata themselves, a voluntary organisation which provides therapy dogs to different services who need them.

The Mirror reports Peata say "pets have been shown to benefit people’s health and well-being - particularly for people staying in nursing homes, hospitals and hospices."

The service every year is open to all pets and their owners.

During the service the dogs were blessed and those who benefit from the incredible work they do day in, day out, had a chance to show their appreciation.

We're 100% sure all the goodest boys and girls were on their best behaviour for the evening of music.

This woman took her dog along, even though she's not a therapy pet:
