Santa Paws Event
Published in 2026 Van Buren Today First Quarter
Highlights Community's Love for Pets

Santa Paws returned to VBT DDA for its third year, bringing holiday cheer, wagging tails and plenty of festive spirit to our community.
This beloved tradition continues to grow, and this year we welcomed more than two dozen furry visitors, 26 dogs and 2 cats, all beautifully behaved and ready for their close-up.
Each pet had their moment with Santa Paws, and the friendly social media competition that followed made it even more fun. The pet with the most likes and engagement was crowned the winner, and this year’s top spot went to Sofia, an absolutely adorable Doberman in her elf costume who stole our hearts.
As Santa Paws keeps reminding us, the good doggies (and kitties!) always come out for the holidays. We’re grateful to everyone who participated and helped make this successful event a joy. With each year, Santa Paws becomes more than just a photo day. It’s a growing tradition that celebrates the love our community shares for its four-legged family members.
