🐾❤️ Valentine’s Day Photo Booth Fundraiser – Strike a Pose for a Cause! ❤️

On February 8, K9 Rescue held a Valentine’s Day event! K9 Rescue also hosts several adoption events where people can adopt rescue dogs from Korea. The organization helps dogs to find a safe and loving home. Some of our students have adopted dogs from the organization too! This is our lovely doggie June from Korea!

Meet our lovely June! Photo Credit to April Kelly.

Here is the event description from K9 Rescue.

Love is in the air, and what better way to celebrate than with adorable pet photos—all while supporting a great cause? 💕 The Valentine’s Day Photo Booth Fundraiser raised money for the Critical Care Vet Fund, helping rescue dogs in need get the lifesaving care they deserve.

📸 The talented pet photographer Jen from The Ways of the Dog captured sweet, themed photos of pets and their humans inside Petco Union Square at the Just Food For Dogs store. 

Korean K9 Rescue exists to rescue and rehabilitate dogs from South Korea and to place them with loving forever families in the United States. We envision a world where all dogs can live happy and free. To date, we have rescued and adopted out over 3,500 dogs.

We are steadfastly committed to bringing an end to the dog meat trade forever, a challenging but essential mission that underlines our belief in the dignity and worth of every dog.
