Kids, furry friends and Santa to paws for pics at Lakeview Square Mall

Additional Information

Wet noses and a white beard, wagging tails and a red hat, kids snuggled with their furry friends. It’s a Kodak moment when kids and their pets pose for photos with Santa Claus at Lakeview Square Mall.

Pet owners are invited to visit Santa at his holiday home in center court from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 25, Dec. 2, Dec. 9, Dec. 16 and Dec. 23 to capture memorable moments. Appointments are not required.

To create a memorable photo, pet owners are invited to dress their furry friends in holiday costumes and colorful accessories, available in center court, courtesy of Lakeview Square Mall. Who can resist a photo of Boots the cat sporting a reindeer antler head band?
To ensure event success, Santa has a few requests. Owners and pets must enter and exit through entrance 2, on the north side of the shopping center, near center court. All animals must be on a leash or in a carrier, and no pets will be allowed beyond the Santa set. Pet owners are responsible for cleaning up after their pets.

All pet visitors will receive a holiday treat, courtesy of the shopping center.
While visiting Santa is free, professional, state-of-the-art digital photography packages are available to capture Santa visitation moments that will be treasured for years to come. All photos are viewable immediately and photo packages are available.

Of course, all kids and families are invited to visit Santa anytime during his holiday hours, through Wednesday, Dec. 24. More information about extended holiday hours, Santa’s hours, stores and services is available at www.lakeviewsquare.com or (269) 979-2225.
