You might remember that an animal shelter was using "Pokemon Go" to encourage people to walk their rescue dogs -

A pretty genius idea!

Well. It worked!

Two pups, helping to catch em all!

Within hours of the posting, adults and children were lined up around the block to walk the pups!

"Hold on Rex, there's a Charmander close to here!"

Not only are people walking the dogs, but they're taking pictures of them and posting them to Instagram. The exposure for the rescues is pretty epic!

This is one of those rare scenarios where literally everyone wins!

And the dogs? They're getting into it too!

Is that you, Pikachu?
