Pizza With a Mission

 

A new pizza restaurant has opened up in my neighborhood.  It's called Pizza to the Rescue.  It's an Italian restaurant with a loving mission.  They support a dog rescue called Almost There Rescue.  It's an organization that rescues pregnant dogs and nurtures them through fostering and adoption.  


The wait staff wear these great t-shirts that they also sell.  

The rescue organization is located in a building right behind the restaurant.  At 6:00 they bring some puppies on to the restaurant's patio so patrons can play with them and maybe even start the adoption process.  They call it "Yappy Hour".  

I wasn't there at 6:00 so I missed the puppy show.  I'll have to go back.  

Good food, a great cause and cute puppies, what could be more fun?

What a great idea! I've never heard of a restaurant existing to encourage pet adoption, but I love the ingenuity.

I'd go there for sure, Sharon. You may end up adopting a puppy!
