Larry Peaslee, dressed as Santa Claus, prepares to visit Monday with dogs that were brought to Sissy’s Stay N’ Play & Spa in Rumford for a Christmas party for dogs. Along with having their pictures taken with Santa, each dog received a stocking filled with homemade dog biscuits. The dogs’ owners also drew names to see whose pet would play Secret Santa to provide doggie gifts for the other pets. More than 80% of the pets at Sissy’s Stay N’ Play & Spa are rescued animals.
