❤️ Love at First Bark: Valentine’s Day Dog Adoption Expo & Fashion Show ❤️
Celebrate Valentine’s Day with wagging tails, big hearts, and second chances at Love at First Bark - a special dog adoption expo and fashion show at Galleria Fort Lauderdale.
Everglades Angels Dog Rescue is thrilled to participate in this one-day event dedicated to pets, community, and finding loving homes for dogs in need. Stop by our table to meet some of our incredible adoptable dogs, learn more about our rescue mission, and find out how you can get involved as an adopter, foster, or volunteer!
Adding to the excitement, some of our Angel Dogs will take the spotlight in the red-carpet, runway-style dog fashion show, where stylish pups and their handlers strut for fun, prizes, and plenty of applause. The show will be hosted by special guest Jacey Birch from Local 10 (!!!), making this a must-see Valentine’s Day experience for animal lovers.
