Tracey Lennon (IQVIA): “Meet my nearly 8 year old Mi-ki dog named Sydney – they are a US breed and quite rare in the UK. The photos are from his Xmas Christmas card shoot!

The latest recruit to the Eversheds Sutherland pensions team and an unexpected appearance from “Santa Paws” has led to a deluge of pension pet posts in the run-up to Christmas.

A post by Eversheds Sutherland head of pensions Francois Barker introduced the pensions world to the latest recruit to the legal firm's pensions team. Boots is the fifth guide dogs puppy in training in the Barker household and will be with the Barker household for the next 12 to 15 months as she gets used to a world in which she may be guiding a blind or partially sighted person.

This post came at around the same time as Van Lanschot Kempen's Vicky Casebourne introduced us to Sammuel the Spaniel (a dog also known as Santa Paws at Christmas).

A post from PP editor Jonathan Stapleton then opened the floodgates with dozens of pension pet pics being posted or sent in.

If you want to include your favourite pension pet picture in the PP photo gallery, send your images to jonathan.stapleton@incisivemedia.com including the name of your pet! Dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs etc - all are welcome…
