Paws & Claus: Show Off Your SouthCoast Pet in Their Holiday Best

It's time to deck the halls with barks – er, balls – of holly, and that means it's time to deck out your pets in their howl-iday best as well.

We want you to send us photos of your pet dressed in their holiday best using the form below to enter into our Paws & Claus Photo Contest. Then we'll collect them all and starting next week, you can vote for your favorite!

Keep in mind, it doesn't just have to be a dog or cat; if you can get them dressed up for the holidays, it counts!

There are just a few rules we ask that you follow:

• Do not send professionally-taken photographs. Amateur photos only, please.
• Only one photo per pet. If you send more than one, it will be our discretion which photo we use.

The winner, as selected by our audience, will receive a $250 gift card you can use to either spoil your pet or yourself (at least get them a few treats). We'll announce the winner on Monday, December 23.

Thanks to our great sponsors Alianca Restaurant and Mellisa's Pet Depot for helping us make a Meowy Christmas for one lucky pet owner!
