SAYBROOK TOWNSHIP — “Say Fleas.”
Dogs of all breeds put on their best fur coats Saturday for “Pet Photos with Santa” at Wiscum’s Pampered Pet Products in the Saybrook Plaza on West Prospect Road. Cost was $5 per photo, with proceeds going to the Ashtabula County Humane Society.
“We have lots of people, a lot of dogs and two cats so far,” said Nancy Frazier, chairwoman of the Humane Society’s board of directors.
The Humane Society Kids, a group of sixth-grade students from Jefferson Elementary School, baked cookies to help raise money for the nonprofit agency.
A member of the group, Bradley Korbernik, 11, of Sheffield Township, brought his shepherd-mix dog, Lady, to the fundraiser.
“She showed up at my grandparents’ house two years ago,” Bradley said. “She’s a great watch dog.”
Debbie Davis of Ashtabula wasn’t so sure her 1-year-old Labrador/Border Collie-mix dog named “Destiny” was going to greet Santa.
“She’s pretty excited,” Davis said.
Santa got Destiny to settle down.
About 75 four-legged friends came Saturday to sit under the lights and bark or purr for the camera.
“Dogs are like children,” Santa said. “They like their picture taken with Santa.”
When he’s not donning a red suit, Santa (Calvin Hiltabidel) co-owns Wiscum’s with his wife, Terri.
