A couple of days ago we cried our eyes out shared the story of Walnut the greyhound.
Poor Walnut has had a run of bad health due to his age and according to owner Mark Woods is 'clearly suffering', leading him to make the tough decision to get the dog put to sleep. Crying yet?
Before he took him to the vet, at 11.30am today, Mark wanted to go on one last walk with him and invited other dog owners to join him. A bit like a four-legged green mile.
His shoutout on Facebook attracted loads of attention, and, better still, loads of dogs!

People took to Twitter using the hashtag #walkwithwalnut and the pictures are amazing.
Others who couldn't make it down to the beach took part in tribute walkies with their pooches.
We are walking with you from the States sweet Walnut
Mark had this to say...
And then there's this lazy chap, who is the dog version of me.
It's OK to cry. You can cry now.
RIP in Walnut, you little legend.
