Give Your Pooch a Smooch of Love

Get a portrait of your pet taken in time for Valentine's Day that benefits a local humane society.

Sometimes the best Valentines are the ones that speak on command.

This lovey-dovey Feb. 14, treat your pooch to a pet portrait. The Escondido Humane Society  (EHS) is offering to take a special of your furry loved one this weekend.

Saturday, Feb. 4, the community is invited to stop by the Humane Society for some unique Valentines. Pets, both cats and dogs, can get their photos taken in front of a festive and heart-filled backdrop. You can use the pictures for your own personal Valentines and melt your friends’ hearts with adorable photos of your furry friends.

The Escondido Humane Society is asking for just a $10 donation for you to get a keepsake 4x6 photo. You can donate another $10 to the Society and get all the digital files from the photo shoot on a CD. The donations benefit the Humane Society and other pets who have yet to find homes.

Ready to give a sweet Valentine’s gift to pets in need as well as give your pooch the photo op they deserve? Visit EHS, located at 3450 E. Valley Parkway in Escondido, on Feb. 4 from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Walk-ins are welcome for this event.
