HOUSTON – Downward dog is about to go up in the cuteness department with Puppy Yoga!
This Sunday, April 30 is National Adopt a Shelter Pet day we are sending Houston Life Reporter Melanie Camp out to try this cute version of yoga and learn more about adopting a shelter pet.
On Sunday, May 7, the JW Marriott Houston Downtown is hosting Puppy Yoga. The event is a playful partnership between no-kill shelter Houston Pets Alive and Yoga2Gather of Bellaire.
Adoptable puppies will join a special yoga class and you can be there.
If you want to try puppy yoga there are still a few a spots open for the class on May 7 but that class is booking up fast.
Yoga mats are provided and playtime with adoptable puppies is included in the $45 ticket price. In addition, guests will enjoy a complimentary welcome beverage and valet parking along with a 10% discount in the hotel’s Main Kitchen restaurant.
