This Shelter Takes Dogs Out For ‘Puppuccinos’ To Find Them Furever Homes

Shelter dogs tend to lead quite depressing lives waiting, day after day in small, often cramped cages for a loving human to pick them up into their furever homes.

So… the Kitsap Humane Society in Washington is taking their pooches for coffee to make them feel better.

A few years ago, volunteer, Molly Clark began taking shelter dogs for a ride-along to the local Starbucks, grabbing a coffee for herself and a “puppuccino” for her four-legged co-pilot.

Shortly after, she decided to create an official program for this these special occasion, calling it “Puppuccino Pals.”

Once a week, The Kitsap Humane Society in Washington takes an adoptable dog to the Bucklin Hills Starbucks for a ‘puppuccino’ and photo op.

They then post the adorable pictures to Instagram. The result? Pure joy—and more dogs finding forever homes. Win-win.

The dogs also get a chance to change their environment at least for a while and enjoy a car ride

“Staff and volunteers go to great lengths to ensure that each animal here at KHS receives individualized care and attention”
