As we are a nation of dog lovers, with approximately 12 million dogs as pets in the UK and 31 per cent of households owning a dog, it is no surprise that many of us go the extra mile to make our dogs feel a part of the family with a visit to see the man himself.
If anyone is interested in meeting Santa Paws before Christmas, Dels Pets Shop & Grooming in Mansfield will host a dog-friendly grotto each Saturday before the big day.
On All Pawz Professional Pet Services is also hosting a charity Santa Paws meet and greet on Sunday, December 10.
