Pet Photos with Santa November 5th and 6th
Proceeds help Humane Society protect and care for animals in need

Santa Paws will be stopping his sleigh at The Humane Society of Vero Beach and Indian River County on Saturday, November 5h and Sunday, November 6h from 11:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m. During his short stay, pets and their family members can have their photos snapped with Santa and his elf assistants.

“Indian River County has the cutest pets around,” Santa Paws divulged during an exclusive phone interview from the North Pole. In years past, Santa has met many of Indian River County’s pets including dogs, cats, ferrets, rabbits and even a pet chicken here and there.

Santa revealed that animals from across the county contacted him to ask if he would consider helping the less fortunate animals at the shelter. “For $15, pets and their families can get a lovely photo with me and will help the shelter’s animals at the same time,” he said. Santa added that the sitting fee includes one photo plus a digital file for reproduction. Photos with Santa make great holiday gifts and can also be used for printing holiday cards.

Santa Paws has a tight schedule during the holidays so he’s asked that reservations be made prior to his visit. A reservation will ensure that he can spend quality time with pets and their families. If you and your pet(s) would like to be photographed with Santa Paws, please call (772) 388-3331 ext. 20 to make an appointment. The Humane Society of Vero Beach and Indian River County is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping the animals of Indian River County and is located at 6230 77th St., Vero Beach.
