The Pop Up Dog Cafe in Los Angeles, California, is being touted as the first of its kind. Adorable and interactive, it isn't just a space for pet owners to bring their furry friends when out and about. It is meant to introduce people to friendly shelter dogs that are up for adoption. Putting a personality to the pictures that often don't do the pets justice online, the Pop Up Dog Cafe is a great bridge for those interested in adopting.
Although it was a very brief event, the Pop Up Dog Cafe was a huge success. Founded by Sarah Wolfgang, the model she used differs slightly from similar Asian establishments. Due to health codes, food is served outside by way of food trucks. And the purpose of the shop is much more geared towards adoption.
