Santa knows that all dogs are good, even the naughty ones – and cats deserve a present too.

Santa knows all dogs deserve a Christmas present

And this Christmas at Dobbies Garden Centres, pet lovers across the Lothians have the chance to book their pooch or feline friend in for the ultimate festive experience.

Santa Paws will be available at the Edinburgh store from the November 28 to December 24, with pet owners able to take a purr-fect snap to celebrate the festive period.

This will take place in-store and four-legged friends will enjoy a selfie with Santa in his Winter Wonderland, and also receive a special treat from him.

Graeme Jenkins, CEO at Dobbies, said: “With a strong pet offering in store, we have a very loyal group of four-legged customers who enjoy our products all-year-round – and we wanted to offer a special festive experience just for them.

“Along with the chance for owners to take a snap with Santa, we have a whole host of pet food, toys and grooming products to spoil your pets this Christmas.”

Santa Paws takes place on weekends from November 28 and is priced at £6.99 per pet, with full Covid precautions taken throughout the premises, including sanitation stations and regular cleansing of all common areas. Slots must be booked in advance at dobbies.com. Customers can also Book with Confidence, with a full refund issued if Dobbies cancel the event, and free cancellation if customers need to cancel, up to 3 days prior to the event.
