Take your four-legged friends to meet Santa Paws at Jerry Green Dog Rescue in Blidworth

The charity is excited to announce the return of its annual Santa Paws event on Sunday, December 14, at its Nottinghamshire Centre in Blidworth.

This sell-out celebration promises a joyful experience for local dog owners and their furry friends, kicking off the festive season with community spirit and cheer.

Santa Paws will once again be meeting local dogs for special Christmas photos, with each ticket purchase including a memorable digital image of your pup meeting Santa Paws, and a Christmas present for every dog too.

Attendees can enjoy delicious seasonal treats and warm drinks, adding a festive touch to the day.

Guests will also be able to browse a selection of stalls including pre-loved sales, a tombola, a raffle, and have the chance to win £1,000 just in time for Christmas through the Grand Draw ticket sale.

The funds raised will ensure that the charity continues to care for and find loving homes for dogs awaiting their new families.

“This festive event is a brilliant way to bring our community of dog lovers together while supporting our cause.

“We can’t wait to bring lots of festive cheer and wagging tails to the local dogs and their families.”

The magical day at Jerry Green Dog Rescue’s Nottinghamshire Centre promises to spread Christmas cheer and foster community spirit while supporting a great cause.
