Bringing a Little Love to MADACC

Bringing new toys and a little extra love to the dogs at MADACC.

Bringing a little love to MADACC 🐾🤍

Today was one of those days that reminds you how much a little kindness can mean.

We brought new toys to MADACC for the nearly 150 dogs currently there, and we thought the pups would be most excited about choosing a new toy.

But honestly, the toys weren’t even the first thing they wanted.

They wanted people.

A little cuddle. Some attention. Someone to sit with them for a few minutes. And then, once they got their fill of love, they picked out their new toys. 

It was such a sweet reminder that these dogs need more than just food and supplies. They need connection, too.

All of the dogs featured in this video are currently available for adoption. And if adoption isn’t something you can do right now, you can still help. MADACC is always looking for dog walkers and volunteers to spend time with the pups and give them some extra love while they wait for their people.

Sometimes, just showing up can make a difference. 🐾🤍
