Adoptapalooza
This weekend the Mayor's Alliance for NYC's Animals held a giant, fun-filled adoption event encouraging New Yorkers to welcome a "little New Yorker" into their homes—little, furry and four-legged, we might add. Adoptapalooza is held regularly under the arch of Washington Square Park, celebrated with a day full of dog agility demonstrations, pet training, face-painting and photo ops.
This year over 100 adoptable dogs and cats were on hand to turn our hearts to mush and lick our faces clean off. There were mutts and pit bull mixes, papillons, beagles, puggles, chugs (chihuahua pugs, for the uninitiated), kittens and cats galore from shelters across the city. We wanted to take them all home with us! Trust us: one look at these faces and you will feel the same way!
