People, pets meet at unique cafe

A canine-themed cafe has opened in Los Angeles where people can pet, play with and even choose to adopt dogs.

Sarah Wolfgang, founder of The Dog Cafe, had considered opening such a place in Los Angeles since 2014. But the idea first occurred to her while volunteering at a shelter in South Korea when she was 14. She thought about opening a cafe where guests could come and meet adoptable dogs.

"The Dog Cafe is going to put a spin on the way people adopt, by totally reinventing the way we connect with homeless dogs. We want to provide you with the opportunity to see these highly adoptable pooches in their true light," Wolfgang told LAist, a Los Angeles-area news and information website. "And even if you're not looking to adopt, you can still enjoy all of the sloppy kisses you've ever wanted," she added.
