Kate Upton has been a busy bee at spring training.
On the heels of fine dining—with ridiculous wine glasses—with boyfriend Justin Verlander, Upton was spotted at Wednesday’s Nationals-Tigers game carrying around a dog.
But this wasn’t a Pageviews-esque attempt at attention, as Upton is in Florida helping dog adoption in her hometown of Melbourne, Fla.—per E! Online:
“The shelter is in my hometown and my sister volunteers there and whenever I’m in town I go over there and volunteer, too,” Upton told me earlier today. “I was raised on five acres and we’ve always been a dog and horse family. We’re big animal people.
“I feel it’s really important for people to know that there are such loving dogs out there that need homes and it’s important that your first thought not be to shop for a dog, but to adopt one,” she said.
Big day for old, retired men in Florida. First Bryce Harper’s hair and now Upton strolling around with dogs? It doesn’t get any better than that.
