Pets + Santa = Fun

On Saturday, pet owners lined up to have their companion animals' pictures taken with Santa Claus.



The event, which was a benefit for the Dutchess County SPCA, was held at Petco in the Town of Poughkeepsie. The photos were taken by Al Nowak of On Location Studios, also in Town of Poughkeepsie.

Here is Debbie Napolitano of Wappingers Falls and her greyhounds Chance, 6, Logan, 5, and Chinaberry, 5, getting the paparazzi treatment with Kris Kringle.



And it was not just dogs that were the center of attention with Santa.


Most of the pooches were patient.


Here's Al (left) making his magic.


Jill Greaves of the City of Poughkeepsie brought Freddy, her 6-year-old bassett hound to have his picture taken.


Wingdale resident Melanie Skillman wanted a picture taken with Santa and her 1-year-old bison frise Rose and 9-year-old Yorkshire terrier Ricky. Ricky looks good in a Santa hat.
