Meet Santa Paws, pose for your Christmas portraits and keep your eyes peeled for a certain green Christmas grouch... THE GRINCH is coming to town! Will a room full of adorable Cockapoos charm him into loving Christmas? With those gorgeous teddy-bear faces, big brown eyes and bouncing curls, we reckon he doesn't stand a chance!
From tiny Christmas elves to fluffy little Santas, we want to see ALL the festive outfits. Christmas jumpers, matching ensembles and sparkle galore – it's going to be ridiculously cute!
MEET LOTS OF COCKAPOOS
Imagine walking into a room FULL of Cockapoos! Apricot, chocolate, black, cream, red, little ones, big ones, bouncy youngsters and distinguished Cockapoo oldies.

Our events are a brilliant opportunity for friendly, well-socialised Cockapoos to meet their own kind in a safe, secure, off-lead environment. No tangled leads or rushed pavement hellos, just the freedom to sniff, explore, zoomie and make new friends at their own pace.
Whether your Cockapoo is a full-time party animal, a professional ball chaser or happiest pottering around collecting cuddles, there's something lovely about seeing them surrounded by dogs just like them. Add in lots of human attention and treats, and you've got one VERY happy Cockapoo! 🐾
MEET SANTA PAWS & THE GRINCH 🎅💚
Santa Paws is coming to London to meet your Cockapoo, pose for festive photos and spread a little Christmas magic. But watch out... THE GRINCH is coming too!

Get your Christmas outfits ready, because with two very special guests, gorgeous festive backdrops and free professional photography, these are going to be some seriously cute Christmas memories.
DRESSED TO SLEIGH 🎅✨

We'll also have heaps of Christmas dress-up props and accessories for you to borrow, from Santa hats to festive headwear, so everyone can get involved.
MAKE NEW HUMAN FRIENDS ❤️
The dogs aren't the only ones making new besties!
