'I paid for the adoption fees and sponsored their adoptions, so my fans and their families were able to rescue when they came to my show,' Ariana revealed.
'All the pups I sponsored got homes,' she proudly boasted.
'But if you’re not in a position to rescue, follow your local shelters on Facebook and Instagram and share the posts of the pups that are having trouble finding homes.'
