Pawsitive Vibes: Puppy Yoga

with Rilo’s Rescue at Balance Yoga

June 8th - 4:00pm

at Balance Yoga; 3055 East Fairview Avenue, Meridian, Idaho 83642, United States **THE FRONT DOOR IS IN THE BACK OF BUILDING (Behind Cycle Gear)

We are so excited to be partnering with Rilo's rescue - another local Boise Nonprofit that works to provide shelter, care, and rehoming services for abandoned, abused, and neglected animals - to bring you another round of Puppy Yoga!! Puppy yoga is, by far, the most joyous event around. Snuggle with pups, stretch your body, and leaving with a giant smile on your face.

Rilo's is getting a litter of pups and they all need homes! All of the puppies at this event are up for adoption! There will be a mixture of breeds, all 100% good boys and girls. No yoga experience is needed. All are welcome to join. Children are welcome, as long as accompanied by an adult and old enough to stay on their mats and treat the pups with love and kindness.

Classes are a sliding scale, $35-50 donation. Please also consider bringing dog food, toys, or supplies to donate to Rilo's Rescue's foster families. **Please note: There is a formal application process required to adopt the pups.
