With Christmas right around the corner, many Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows pets have been getting into the holiday spirit.

We recently put out a call for pictures of local pets who were all dressed up for some holiday festivities.

We received dozens of responses with pictures ranging from the hilarious to the downright adorable.

French bulldogs Gracie and Jax were able to meet Santa for the first time, which neither of them appeared to be very thrilled about.

Meanwhile, a couple of Shih Tzus named Meela and Gizmo had a bit of mother-son bonding time as they donned their decorative antlers and Santa hat.
