Start the holiday season off right with a fun-filled night for the whole family!

Pets In Need's inaugural holiday party will feature activities, decor, and tasty treats that celebrate the most wonderful time of the year. The best part is, you can make memories with your entire family, both two-legged and four. Activities will include:

• Professional pictures with Santa for both humans and pets (prints are included with admission)

• Craft stations for kids and kids at heart

• Puppy play pen to socialize with our adoptable dogs

• Holiday gift corner featuring local small shops

• Ugly holiday sweater contest for your canine companion*

• Sweater decorating station for those participating in contest

Admission for those over the age of 12 is $20 per person. Admission for children ages 12 and under is free. All proceeds from the event will benefit Pets In Need's rescue program and community services.

Plus, during the month of December, we will be holding a toy drive for our shelter residents. If you would like to donate, please bring an unused toy to the party. There will also be toys for purchase at the shelter during the event.

*We will have a limited number of sweaters available for purchase at our shelter, but we encourage you to bring either a pre-decorated or blank sweater with you to guarantee correct fit and participation in contest. We will have a station where you can decorate your sweater, but please feel free to bring your own decorations to add if you would like.
