Get a holiday photo taken with your pet
All of us will soon be receiving gifts for the holiday season, but the best gift is already in our homes - our pets.
MyCentralJersey.com is partnering with Crown Veterinary Specialists to sponsor a $15 donation pet photo session for our furry loved ones in celebration of the holidays from 12:30 to 2:30 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 3 at Crown Veterinary Specialists at 23 Blossom Hill Road, Lebanon.
The event will run in conjunction with Crown Veterinary Specialists' Holiday Open House which will be conducted from 12 to 3 p.m. Visitors also will be able to see live reindeer, meet dogs available for adoption from the Greyhound Friends of New Jersey and enjoy refreshments. Feel free to come to your photo session early to enjoy these activities while you wait. Each pet family will also receive a special gift.
The $15 photo session donation will go to Crown's Care Fund, a nonprofit foundation that helps pet owners facing financial difficulties to afford vet care, as well as funds earmarked for homeless pets. Please bring your $15 via check so that you can receive a receipt and thank-you card.
Reservations are required, which will be taken through JIntersimone@MyCentralJersey.com and 908-303-8390, and no walk-ins will be accepted. Space is very limited, so if you're interested, don't waste time!

The photo session is open to only dogs and cats with their owners. Pets should be on a leash or in a carrier, up-to-date with vaccines and friendly with other animals and people. Props will be available, however feel free to bring your own photo props as well. Owners are welcome to appear in the photos alongside their animals as well.
Attendees will receive a free digital photo taken by Bob Karp, an award-winning staff photographer with Gannett New Jersey, and a goody bag from Crown Veterinary Specialists and MyCentralJersey.com.
Photos will be displayed in an online photo gallery on MyCentralJersey.com and select photos will be published in the print editions of the Courier News and Home News Tribune.
