Oh, Plungers! Fur Kids Foundation had such a great turnout for the Pooch Plunge this weekend: more than 210 dogs attended and we raised more than $1,200 at the event!

Photos are posted on Facebook (in the 2019 Pooch Plunge album) and to the Facebook event, so please feel free to tag yourself in them and share them with your friends. We'd also love it if you posted photos and/or videos of your dogs in the Facebook event so others can see how much fun it was.
