WASHINGTON — Want to play with a puppy without the long-term obligation? The Washington Animal Rescue League is teaming up with Uber and Animal Planet to deliver dogs to your doorstep for a good cause Wednesday.
For $30, D.C.-area residents can order a dog for 15-minute increments between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. Wednesday. If it seems steep for some puppy one-on-one playtime, it鈥檚 going to a good cause: every dollar is donated directly to the , a non-profit animal shelter located in Northwest D.C.
An added bonus: each dog is available for adoption.
鈥淭his promotion really raises adoption awareness for these wonderful animals ready to find their forever homes,鈥� WARL CEO Bob Ramin said in a news release.
The canine convene comes days before 聽— the annual TV program where puppies adorably rumble. The show airs opposite the Super Bowl.
To get in on the puppy delivery, open the Uber app between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. and enter 鈥淒Cpuppies鈥� as a promo code in order to unlock the puppy delivery option.
There鈥檚 more to gain than time with a furry companion. Participants will receive a 鈥淧uppy Bowl gift pack,鈥� too.
Also, all participants are encouraged to share their pictures of the experience using #UberPuppyBowl.
