Doggone Cute! Chrishell Stause & Rescue Pooch Gracie Cuddle Up For PETA's New 'Adopt Don't Shop' Campaign — See The Photos
The one thing Chrishell Stause loves as much as real estate and fashion? Dogs!
In honor of National Dog Day on August 26, PETA unveiled their latest "Adopt Don’t Shop" campaign, which features the Selling Sunset star and her rescue pup Gracie.
In a promo video, the soap opera actress noted how "sometimes people just want a fancy, cute dog," but there are already so many other dogs available in shelters. "The dog that will be your best friend, that will change your life, that will be your life companion, is sitting there waiting for you."
In 2016, Stause adopted Gracie and Memphis, as the two were a bonded pair. Though the latter had health issues, the star took both of them in, though Memphis passed in 2018. "I thought of it as giving him an amazing retirement home," she said of caring for him in his final years.
The real estate agent spoke out on her new collaboration via Instagram.
"So excited to share that Gracie and I worked with @peta to promote adoption and help homeless dogs!" she wrote. "I’ve been passionate about dog adoption for so long and hope this inspires all of you to welcome home an adopted dog 🏠."
"There are 70 million homeless animals in the U.S. who need us all to always adopt and #NeverBuyDogs," she added. "Thank you @peta for giving me my favorite photo I have ever taken!! 😁."
The reality star has been out and about lately to film for season 4 of Selling Sunset, which will see two new ladies joining the cast: Emma Hernan and Vanessa Villela.
The former is described as a self-made millionaire "with big real estate clients and an even bigger heart."
She was spotted filming alongside Stause on August 17 in Beverly Hills.
"They are in different stages in their real estate [careers] and obviously, it definitely stirs the pot a little bit," Stause told Us Weekly of the two newcomers. "But I will say they're really lovely."
"You never know what people’s reactions are going to be, but I’ve really enjoyed working with them," insisted the Netflix star. "It’s Selling Sunset, so I can’t say that’s been the case with everyone, or we wouldn’t have a show. But they are really great."
