Young Hollywood

Happy World Dog Day, everyone.

Young Hollywood

I'm Molly Argue for Young Hollywood and this is Sarah Bella.

Young Hollywood

We're hanging out inside Vanderpump Dogs and I'm warning you to be prepared for some major cuteness.

Young Hollywood

I found Mr. Tally here and he's new to Los Angeles.

Young Hollywood

So Tally, I'm wondering, what's your favorite thing about the Vanderpump store?

Guest

You know, Molly, it's really just nice to get your hair did every once in a while.

Guest

They use that conditioner stuff, man, it's wild.

Young Hollywood

Such a great event.

Young Hollywood

You put so much love and work into the second annual Dog Day.

Young Hollywood

For those that aren't here, what is the most important thing you want people to know about this event?

Lisa Vanderpump

We created this event to really set an example to people worldwide that when you have a dog festival, it shouldn't be about to torture dogs, about adopting dogs out, about raising money for Vanderpumpdogs.org.

Lisa Vanderpump

I think to date we've been open like 12 weeks and we've already adopted out, I think 99 dogs, so maybe we'll adopt out 100 and something today.

Young Hollywood

Okay, so you were just adopted today.

Guest

Yeah, it's awesome.

Young Hollywood

What does today mean to you?

Guest

This ice cream cone tastes horrible.

Lisa Vanderpump

We always are trying to promote is really good pet parenting.

Lisa Vanderpump

I hate the use of word pet ownership because anyone who lives with pets knows who owns who.

Lisa Vanderpump

It's parenting.

Young Hollywood

Parenting.

Lisa Vanderpump

And, you know, from my perspective, the owner of 11, well, now 10 pets, the bond to me is one of the most important things.

Lisa Vanderpump

And yes, it's okay.

Lisa Vanderpump

I say, if they made a bed bigger than a California king, I could get more.

Lisa Vanderpump

So yes, my pets do sleep in bed with us.

Young Hollywood

And I think you have a lot of dogs, right?

Lisa Vanderpump

I do, I do.

Young Hollywood

How many dogs do you have?

Lisa Vanderpump

Now four dogs, six cats.

Lisa Vanderpump

So, and uh, and I have a very large bed.

Young Hollywood

All right, Barney, we have a question for you.

Young Hollywood

You're the man of the hour at the moment.

Young Hollywood

What's your favorite hobby?

Guest

My favorite hobby is to chase squirrels in my dreams.

Young Hollywood

Today is all about puppy love.

Young Hollywood

And at Young Hollywood we love dogs.

Young Hollywood

So for those that want to know how they can help, what do you think is the biggest thing people can do to help be voices for dogs everywhere?

Lisa Vanderpump

Um, there's so many things.

Lisa Vanderpump

You know, adopt, I've been guilty of, of shopping before for dogs.

Lisa Vanderpump

But we've got such a huge problem in America.

Lisa Vanderpump

Always spay or neuter your pets.

Lisa Vanderpump

There's so many things, but treat them as they deserve to be treated.

Lisa Vanderpump

You know, the keys are there there's nothing better than sharing your home with a four-legged furry friend.

Lisa Vanderpump

So I advise it, I recommend it.

Lisa Vanderpump

If you're ever thinking about getting a pet, think about the right pet for you.

Young Hollywood

All right, guys, we have a lot of dog going on over here.

Young Hollywood

This is Boss.

Young Hollywood

Hi, Boss.

Guest

Hey, how you doing?

Guest

I'm the boss.

Young Hollywood

Hi, Tucker.

Young Hollywood

Hi, Tucker.

Young Hollywood

Hey, Molly Argue from Young Hollywood.

Young Hollywood

Hi.

Young Hollywood

You're the biggest dog I've seen today at 200 pounds.

Young Hollywood

How does it feel to be the big man in charge?

Guest

What?

Guest

That's how much I weigh?

Guest

Oh, now I'm self-conscious.

Young Hollywood

To you, what is the biggest takeaway of World Dog Day for people that aren't here?

Young Hollywood

What do you want them to know?

Lisa Vanderpump

I want them to know that sharing your home, giving your your a forever home to a pet in need is probably one of the nicest things you can do.

Lisa Vanderpump

There's nothing better than opening your home to a pet.

Lisa Vanderpump

And uh, lots of puppy kisses and cuddles and love.

Lisa Vanderpump

Yes, I I often joke I get more tongue than anybody I know.

Young Hollywood

Well, and lots of cute dogs here today that are ready for some cuddles even behind us.
