Here’s a list of all the Cork Santa Paws experiences to visit with your dog this Christmas

They’ve probably been a very good boy.
So with Christmas around the corner, now is a good time to reward that good behaviour and treat your doggo to a little visit to Santa Paws.
This year, more Cork venues than ever are rolling out the red carpet for furry visitors and inviting Leeside dogs and their owners to meet the big man himself, take a photo for the family album and have some festive fun.
And just in time, the brilliant Paws Friendly has compiled a list of all the best locations to hit this Christmas.
“If you’re anything like me and my adorable dog, Poppy, you know that Christmas isn’t just about jingle bells and mistletoe; it’s about creating paw-some memories with our four-legged family members.” says Paws Friendly blogger and ‘dog mom’ Amanda.
“Each year, I look forward to getting Poppy dressed up in the cutest Christmas outfits for our annual photo with Santa. It’s our little tradition, and I’ve got a collection of pictures that showcases her in everything from a tiny Santa hat to a jolly elf costume.”
These are the Cork spots recommended by Amanda and Poppy for 2023:
- Santa Paws at Marina Market
- Santa Paws at The Kingsley
- Santa Paws at Pet Essentials
- Santa Paws at Showgrounds Clonakilty
- Santa Paws at the CSPCA
- Santa Paws at Maxi Zoo Ballincollig
- Santa Paws at Maxi Zoo Blackpool
- Santa Paws at Maxi Zoo Mahon
- Santa Paws at Maxi Zoo Midleton
But before you get in the car, a word of advice:
“It’s super important to remember that while we’re having a blast, we should also be respectful and considerate.

“Always clean up after your dog, keep them on a lead, and be mindful of their temperament. Big events can be overwhelming for some pups, so make the smart decision on whether it’s the best experience for your furry friend.”
