SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — This holiday season, Woofie's of Scottsdale & Paradise Valley is inviting the community to spread joy beyond their own households through Paws & Claus, a festive fundraising event benefiting Foothills Animal Rescue.
Taking place on Sunday, November 15, at Pinnacle Brewing Company in Scottsdale, the family-friendly celebration will bring together pet lovers, local businesses, and animal advocates for an afternoon of holiday fun with a purpose. A portion of event proceeds will support local rescue efforts by Foothills Animal Rescue, helping provide care, shelter, and opportunities for homeless pets awaiting their forever families.
Sterling Award finalist Matt Young Photography will be capturing unforgettable moments as pets and their people pose with Scottsdale Santa on our festive holiday set. Guests of all ages can enjoy family-friendly entertainment from Magic by CJ, while adults sip special offerings from Pinnacle Brewing Company’s award-winning craft beers. Younger guests and the young at heart can cool off with delicious shaved ice treats from the Snowie Desert food truck. Plus, Woofie’s Mobile Pet Spa will be on-site with our professional grooming team, offering pre-photo nail trims and brush-outs so every pup is camera-ready for their holiday close-up.
"At Woofie's, we believe pets make our lives better every day," said Jill Dunican, Owner of Woofie's Scottsdale & Paradise Valley. "Paws & Claus is our way of bringing the community together to celebrate the holiday season while giving back to animals that don't yet have a family to call their own. Every photo, every donation, and every attendee helps make a difference."
Whether you're bringing your pet for a photo with Scottsdale Santa or simply stopping by to enjoy the festivities, you're sure to experience an afternoon filled with heartwarming memories, festive fun, and plenty of adorable pet moments. Known for its personalized pet care services, including mobile pet spa treatments, dog walking, pet sitting, and overnight care, Woofie's is committed to building strong community connections while advocating for animal well-being throughout Scottsdale and Paradise Valley.
