WHAT: The Lincoln’s periodic event “Dog Day Afternoon” welcomes dogs on Sunday August 13. This event features a visit from dogs up for adoption from Pacific Pups Rescue and Dogs of Service with support from NKLA, an initiative of Best Friends Animal Society, as well as a stop from photographer Sunny Bak. All guests are invited to bring their pooches to the patio, where they can take photos and receive a digital portrait of their pets. Photos are $20 each. A portion of the proceeds will go to local rescue and NKLA partners Pacific Pups Rescue and Dogs of Service. In order to make guests’ dogs feel right at home on a lazy summer afternoon and evening, the bar will offer dog treats, water bowls, toys, and mixing and mingling in canine camaraderie. In order to make guests feel at home, The Lincoln offers Dog Day Afternoon drinks specials all day, an opportunity to support Pacific Pups Rescue, Dogs of Service, and NKLA, as well as hot dogs! In addition, the bar will take donations for the charities on site.

MORE: The Lincoln in Venice is a modern yet vintage craft cocktail bar that just celebrated their one-year anniversary. The Lincoln’s clapboard street frontage feels inspired by a faded postcard plucked from a dusty swap meet—and recalls the area’s industrial heritage in the 30’s, 40’s and 50’s when it was home to numerous auto repair and custom shops. The space provides and rewards community and the mixing of different audiences from workaday drinking buddies to elegant post-dinner dates. The Lincoln has secured significant accolades since opening, including being named one of Los Angeles Magazine’s “…best Dog-Friendly Bars in Los Angeles;” CBS Los Angeles “Best Summer Cocktails in LA;” and one of LA Eater’s “18 Hottest Cocktail Bars in Los Angeles Summer 2016,” listed #1. #thelincolnla.

Pacific Pups Rescue is a non-profit organization. They are a foster-based dog rescue group based in Los Angeles. Pacific Pups Rescue helps homeless dogs in need, whether they are waiting for a home in the shelter, a stray on the streets, or belonging to a homeless person who cannot afford medical care.

Dogs of Service is a non-profit 501c3 organization committed to providing military men and women with service that were rescued from the shelter, free of charge while simultaneously building a community of healing. As a no kill coalition partner, they strive to develop and maintain a network of resources to create supportive and nurturing community as an effective pathway for healing and integration back into civilian life.

NKLA (No-Kill Los Angeles) is an initiative led by Best Friends Animal Society, bringing together passionate individuals, city shelters and an entire coalition of animal welfare organizations to end the killing of homeless pets in L.A. city shelters by the year 2017. Our plan is straightforward: Provide spay/neuter services where they are needed most so that fewer animals go into shelters and increase adoptions so that more animals are placed into new homes. In 2015, the NKLA Coalition helped find homes for about 27,100 dogs and cats, and Best Friends provided support for about 14,700 spay/neuter surgeries for L.A. pets.NKLA (No-Kill Los Angeles) is an initiative led by Best Friends Animal Society, bringing together passionate individuals, city shelters and an entire coalition of animal welfare organizations to end the killing of homeless pets in L.A. city shelters by the year 2017.
