A hundred dogs enjoyed an unexpected snow day in the height of the heatwave - after an indoor ski slope opened its doors to them.

Chill Factore in Greater Manchester invited pups in to play in the snow and cool down.

They say they brought the event back by popular demand.

It was free for pet owners to bring their dogs to the event, but donations were taken for the homeless dogs charity 'Care for the Paw'.
