We’ve been able to do so much for dog rescue since we launched The Vanderpump Dog Foundation – this year we will hopefully surpass our goal of 3000 dogs rescued in the LA area, with thousands more helped internationally. It’s events like this that help us shine a light on the neglect and abuse our furry friends can face, and allow us to raise the funds and awareness to do everything we can to create a better world for them. It’s heartwarming to see so many dog lovers, vendors and sponsors in one place, celebrating man’s best friend.” said Lisa Vanderpump.<\/p>\n The day featured doggy events MC’d by singer\/songwriter Sam De Rosa; Tom Schwartz (“Vanderpump Rules”) in the magic show by award winning magician Katrina Kroetch<\/a>, and stars of Hulu’s Vanderpump Villa<\/i> Anthony Bar, Hagen Bach, Sam Terry and Aidan McHugh as judges.

I want to thank my selfless staff, a group of young people that put the dogs’ needs before their own, and our wonderful volunteers. Thank you to the City of West Hollywood for always supporting us, and to all of our sponsors, including NutriSource, that have really made a difference to our rescue efforts. We will continue to work with our Emergency Medical Fund, saving dogs in critical condition, and to rescue as many dogs as we can,” said Lisa Vanderpump.<\/p>\n Photos: https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/scl\/fo\/bdo0a99jh1yk13udt4789\/AAQVtzjoh3-C0T5HIuOxKZc?rlkey=csc5l4zn943dx364cdtiicb7u&st=foqxxzon&dl=0<\/a><\/p>\n www.vanderpumpdogs.org<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Source: The Vanderpump Dog Foundation<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
