It's the most woofing wonderful time of the year! The snow is snowing, the weather is pawfect for bundling up and sipping on hot cocoa, and every building is glowing with Christmas lights. People are out running errands, buying presents, and generally jolly. But none of those things are the reason why we love this time of year so much - it's because we love to take our doggo to portraits with Santa Claus. Sorry, that's Santa Paws to her. We send them to our family every year, and if that's not proof enough that our dog is our child, then we're not sure what is.

You know what's great about it? That we're not the only ones. Sometimes we even have to wait in a line filled with pawrents and their puppers to get her portrait taken. She's always nervous at first, but as soon as he gives her a treat, she licks his face, and we get a great picture every single year.

Since these pawfect portraits fill us with so much joy, we thought you might enjoy some of them as well. So, we scoured the internet and found some of the cutest, cuddliest canines creating heartwarming memories with Santa to help make your Christmas pawfectly woof-worthy. Enjoy!

She probably has no idea who Santa is or why we take her every year to take a picture with him, but we hope that it's at least making a happy memory for her every year. It certainly does for us.

Now that is a good boy right there. Pawfect pose, pawfect smile, and a pawfect portrait. He's a professional. Somebody get this doggo a casting agent ASAP.
