Bringing the dog to see Santa is a growing trend — even in areas such as rural Kerry. At the Mid Kerry Veterinary Centre, a mixed animal clinic, ‘Santa Paws’ came to Milltown in some style this year.

The brainchild of veterinary nurse Samantha Finucane, to raise funds for charity, the event proved popular for dogs, and cats were allowed too.
