Eden Shopping Centre is inviting dog owners to bring their pets along for the festive shopping season.
The centre will have refreshment stops to keep the dogs hydrated as they accompany their owners.
The centre’s love for dogs extends beyond shopping, with this year’s Christmas event, The Eco Elves Teddy Trade.
Children are invited to bring a pre-loved teddy to place in the ‘magic machine’, which will transform it into a new companion for Christmas.
All pre-loved teddies will be donated to Stokenchurch Dog Rescue, where they will bring comfort to rescue dogs.
A spokesperson for Stokenchurch Dogs Rescue said: “We’re thrilled to be a part of Eden’s Eco Elves Teddy Trade.
“We meet a lot of anxious, scared and shy dogs every day and these teddy bears will be instrumental in helping them calm down as they get used to their temporary new home.”
Rebecca Gomme, marketing manager at Eden Shopping Centre, said: “We absolutely love our furry friends visiting and we want to make sure they enjoy the festive period as much as we do.
“It’s a real honour to be partnering with Stokenchurch Dog Rescue to make a real difference in our community as we approach such an important time of year.”
