HOW IT WORKS
These events make adoption approachable, personal, and fun — no kennel bars, no stress, just happy dogs meeting potential families in real-life settings. While you sip your latte, you can learn their stories, give them some love, and maybe even take one home!
Every cup of coffee becomes a chance to change a life.
ADOPTION MEETS COFFEE CULTURE
Pups & Cups is our signature series of adoption events hosted at local coffee shops across Southern California and North Texas.
We partner with community-minded cafés that open their patios and indoor spaces to showcase adoptable dogs in a warm, relaxed setting. Visitors can sip their favorite drinks, meet friendly pups, hear their rescue stories, and even start the adoption process on the spot.
By taking pets out of the shelter and into vibrant, welcoming spaces, we give them the visibility they need — and give the public a chance to connect with them in a way that’s natural, joyful, and stress-free.
From Huntington Beach to Fort Worth, Pups & Cups is building community, one latte and one wagging tail at a time.
HOST A PUPS & CUPS EVENT
Partner with The Adopt Don’t Shop MVMT and help make adoption the only option in your community. We bring in the pups, you provide the cups! When you join us as a Community Partner, you’re not just hosting an event — you’re becoming part of a powerful movement to end pet homelessness and give every animal the chance to be seen, loved, and adopted.
