Puppy Yoga in Gainesville Benefitting a Local Rescue — 1:30 PM Session
About this Event
Puppy yoga comes to Gainesville — and every ticket helps rescue puppies find homes.
Join Kitten Paws and Downward Dogs and the brothers of Lambda Chi Alpha – Epsilon Mu on Saturday, November 14 for one hour of gentle, all-levels yoga surrounded by adoptable puppies from a local Gainesville rescue partner. Flow, stretch, get climbed on, and take as many puppy breaks as you need. Nobody minds. Open to the whole UF campus and the public.
The puppies are the point. Every puppy in the room is a rescue and is looking for a home. Our rescue partner brings the puppies, their pen and their volunteers, so you can meet, cuddle and start an adoption conversation on the spot. We'll name the rescue here as soon as they're confirmed.
Where the money goes. Net proceeds go straight to the rescue, scaled to seats sold. The more of you who show up, the bigger the check.
