From 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. Auto Connect Sales will be filled with dogs and puppies available for adoption.

The public is welcome to drop in, visit some dogs and participate in their silent auction, face painting and barbeque, with proceeds going towards animal care.

Cheryl Watson, from Auto Connect, says prior to opening their Lansdowne location she worked with Katelyn Hubbert, the founder of Four Lucky Paws.

“We always try to do as many charitable thing as we can,” said Watson. “Now, here we are, we have the opportunity to help even more than before and we’re just hoping to bring more awareness to her rescue, and help find some puppies a home.”

Hubbert started this rescue on her own in 2014.

“That’s not an easy thing to do, start something from scratch,” said Watson. “I’m so proud of what she’s accomplished so far.”

Four Lucky Paws is a foster-based rescue, meaning they do not have a physical shelter for animals in their care.

Individuals sign up to temporarily house dogs until someone reaches out to adopt.

Four Lucky Paws relies on donations and volunteers to fund medical care, food, supplies, and training. All dogs in their care are spayed or neutered before adoption.

Watson hopes that even if they aren’t ready to adopt, those that come on Saturday may consider fostering a dog, or donating to allow Four Lucky Paws to continue the work they do.

“Even if you can’t adopt a dog right now, who doesn’t want to come snuggle a puppy for a day?”
