Maya Meets Santa Claus

Meet little black and tan wire-hair 'Maya' from Martinsburg, West Virginia. Maya Weiner showed up in her holiday best Saturday morning for her first-ever photo with Santa at a fundraiser for the Berkeley County Humane Society. Excerpt from The Journal: The 9-month-old, donned in a red and black sweater, alternated between tail wagging excitement and attempts at frantic four pawed getaways, as she took her spot on the big guy’s lap. Then, the photo hit a snag. The camera needed a new battery, and as the photographers who were on hand for the day’s event at Goin’ Postal, made the necessary change, Maya climbed down, walking around the room, sniffing and investigating her surroundings. It wasn’t the traditional picture-with-Santa scene. The brown and black miniature wire-haired dachshund was part a long line of dogs that got some face time with Santa as part of a fundraiser for the Berkeley County Humane Society.
