Kate Upton is at Nationals Spring Training with a bunch of adorable puppies

Kate Upton brings cute dogs to Nats Spring Training

If there's one thing the Internet loves, it's pictures of adorable animals. If there's a second thing the Internet loves, it's pictures of adorable animals posing with model/actress Kate Upton.

Well, everyone with a Wi-Fi connection and/or mobile device found themselves #blessed on Wednesday when Upton popped by Nationals Spring Training to help find homes for some puppies.

"I think it's really important to bring awareness to adopt dogs instead of shop them," Upton said. "There's millions of dogs who die in shelters every year and people get new pets every year, so it's time for them to go to the shelter."

Upton's from Viera, Fla., and animal adoption is a cause she holds near and dear to her heart. So, she chose to partner with the local Brevard County Sheriff Office's Animal Services branch as the Nats hosted her boyfriend -- Justin Verlander -- and the Tigers for a Spring Training game. 

Verlander had previously adopted his pup Riley and Upton has two adopted dogs of her own, so they're probably running out of room for stick figure animal window clings on the back windshields of Verlander's incredible cars.
