They would do anything for love 鈥� including going behind bars.

Local celebrities and community leaders will get locked into dog kennels at the SPCA to raise funds for abused and homeless animals this month.

鈥淟ock-In for Love is a fun event that raises urgently needed funds for our community鈥檚 most vulnerable animals,鈥� says Tess Repenning, B.C. SPCA manager of community fundraising. 鈥淧articipants share kennel space with some cuddly SPCA canines while raising enough money to be let out. Last year, more than $20,000 was raised in a matter of hours, all for abused, neglected, homeless, injured and sick animals in the province, thanks to some superstar participants.鈥�

This year, Lock-In for Love locations in the Okanagan region include:

91大黄鸭 鈥� June 21

South Okanagan (Penticton) 鈥� June 19

Vernon 鈥� June 22
