All pets are welcome as long as they are comfortably restrained and attend the event with their owners. Santa also said that he expects the top five Christmas wishes for dogs currently living at the City's Animal Services Agency will be:

  • To be adopted into a loving, permanent home
  • A City of Winnipeg dog license (on sale at the photo event)
  • A long walk
  • Canned dog food
  • Collars and leashes

Also attending the holiday photo event as Santa's little helpers will be two dogs up for adoption at City's Animal Services Agency, Fenway and Patches.
