Cute dogs in ugly sweaters? Yes, please. On Saturday, Nov. 22, Citizens for a No-Kill Philadelphia and Historic Philadelphia will be hosting an "Ugly Sweater Adoption Extravaganza" at Franklin Square Park (6th and Race streets).

From 3 p.m. until 8 p.m., local pet owners are encouraged to bring their pups out in their ugliest holiday sweater to enjoy Franklin Square's daily light show, pet photos with Santa, agility demonstrations by the Zoom Room Philadelphia, and more family friendly fun. The pooch with the best ugly sweater will win a surprise pet prize pack and of course there's something in it for you, too, human.

No pet? No problem! There will be plenty of adoptable pets from local shelters around the city ready to find their forever home.
