The word is out, dogs get you dates! Studies have shown that having a tail wagging wingman or hot hand hound, makes you instantly more attractive, and can even reduces those 'first date' nerves.

As featured on SUNRISE and the TODAY show, Adopt Don’t Shop Foundation is teaming up with The Sheaf and a local dog rescue organisation to bring you a fun, flirty and fundraising afternoon of dating those with doggies.

Are you single and have ever swiped through Tinder and found yourself drawn to those with a puppy pal? Why? Simple. Dogs make you more approachable and show that you can take care of someone other than yourself – making you my fellow dog-loving friend, a diamond in the ruff.

While it is most certainly a BYOD (bring your own dog) event, don’t get your tails in a knot if you love dogs but don’t have your own furry friend - as we'll be bringing along some foster dogs for you to fuss over - meaning you can be just a dog lover or a dog owner!

With a portion of profits from ticket sales going to Staffy Rescue - this event also makes you a pawsome person!

The event is for singles between 20 and 45 ish, keeping in mind that dog-friendly hoomans and dogs are key to us all having a barking mad time!

Please note that Dating with Dogs is hosted and organised by the Adopt Don't Shop Foundation. Should you have any questions regarding the event or ticket sales, please email adoptdontshopfoundation@outlook.com
