10 places to get a Santa photo with your dog around Vancouver

Here's where you can get an adorable dog photo with Santa across Metro Vancouver in 2021.


Tis the season for your four-legged friend to sit on the two-legged man in red.


Many Santas are still laying low this season as we ease out of safety restrictions, but OhMyDog! has the scoop on where to find him for the perfect puppy photo-op.


Some places have even adapted the tradition with innovative solutions to social distancing.


So bathe ‘em and brush ‘em for the big day. Santa will know if they’ve been good little boys and girls!


Here’s where you can find Santa photos for your dog near Vancouver this holiday season:


1. Tisol (Arbutus location)


This event, also known as “Santa Paws”, features a real live Santa Claus with an entire weekend carved out of his busy schedule for your pooch. And your $20 donation goes toward the Thank Dog I’m Out rescue society, the Vancouver non-profit that re-homes neglected and abused dogs. Say cheese for a great cause!
