More than 100 dogs put their best paw forward for the Teddington Dog Olympics 2014.

Gold, silver and bronze rosettes were handed out to the winners of hotly contested events such as marathon sit and doggy limbo by Lock, Stock and Two Smoking barrels actor Stephen Marcus.

No other pooch came within a sniff of the 5cm doggy limbo record set by a miniature dotson, and a munsterlander named Baron put in a star paw-formance to take the gold in the longest sit event at Udney Hall Gardens on September 7.

There was a degree of controversy surrounding the supremely talented winner of the best tricks award, Eric the collie, when it was revealed that the clever canine had previously competed at Crufts.

Puppy school trainer Julie Carrig organised the event, which raised more than £2,000 for animal charities Hounslow Animal Welfare, Animal Rescue and Care.
