OGILVIE Homes’ online Christmas charity campaign 'Paws for a Cause' raised £1200 for Canine Partners.
The company set up a unique advent calendar on its website where people uploaded a photo of their favourite pet with the chance to win a personalised pet portrait.
Steve Lloyd, managing director at Ogilvie Homes, handed over a cheque to Dale Gormley from Canine Partners.
Louise Graham from Plean won the portrait of her pet German Shepherd Roxy and received her painting from the artist, Janis Melville.
They were joined by Gill Bedwell and her canine partner, Jagger, a three-year-old Golden Labrador.
Steve said: "It was a pleasure to donate the cheque to Canine Partners and meet Gill and Louise.
"The charity does an incredible job in training and partnering dogs with disabled people, making a huge difference to their daily lives."
Canine Partners is a registered charity that trains assistance dogs for people with disabilities in the UK.
They receive no government funding and rely solely on public donations and legacies to create life-transforming partnerships with disabled people and specially trained dogs.
