Rocky Kanaka is no stranger to rescuing and nurturing. He often helps animals in need and shares about it on YouTube in the hope of inspiring others to foster.
While he often gives homeless dogs a better life through awareness and nurturing, he decided to do something extra special for a group of homeless dogs. in Marley’s Mutts Dog Rescue back in 2017.
Knowing how special holidays are and how important they are to humans, Kanaka decided to bring a group of homeless dogs together and treat them to their own special holiday: Feast. replace the casing.
No one should be alone on Thanksgiving if they don’t want to, and that goes for animals too. Sadly, many homeless dogs live alone in shelters, waiting for someone to love them and give them a family.
In one day, a lucky few will forget their homelessness and enjoy a taste of Thanksgiving, doggy style.
Kanaka has arranged a table, including tablecloths and pads for each puppy. Special Thanksgiving dog-friendly food was ordered and the dogs were brought in to celebrate!
The dogs, including the rescuers Titan and Hooch, enjoyed the feast at the table surrounded by friends. See the celebration below:
Sadly, Titan passed away shortly after the Barksgiving celebrations. We’re glad to hear he experienced a bit of fun and sociability before crossing the rainbow bridge.
After the success of the Shell Change Festival in 2017, Kanaka continued to recreate the celebration the following year. He got together to treat another group of homeless dogs to a special party.
Apparently they had a blast and enjoyed every moment:
