August 26 is celebrated as National Dog Day, with events and initiatives promoting pet adoption and celebrating pet dogs across the globe. KPRC 2's annual 'Clear the Shelters' campaign encourages pet adoption, while several Bollywood celebrities, including Malaika Arora, Ram Charan, Shraddha Kapoor, Farah Khan, and Priyanka Chopra Jonas, showcased their love for their pets on this day. Diana Penty and other stars like Aditya Roy Kapoor, Madhuri Dixit, and Randeep Hooda are vocal advocates for the adoption of stray dogs, often sharing their own experiences to promote the cause. Diana Penty recently visited a shelter in Malad, highlighting the importance of adopting stray dogs and sharing her personal journey with her adopted pets. These initiatives and personal stories aim to raise awareness about animal welfare and the benefits of adopting rather than shopping for pets.
