Dorothy O’Connor Pet Adoption Center will be taking part in the ASPCA® (The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals®) national Find your Fido initiative to help find loving homes for dogs available for adoption in the community.
The ASPCA estimates that approximately 3.3 million dogs enter U.S. animal shelters every year, where they sit waiting to be adopted into a loving home. The ASPCA #FindYourFido campaign is designed to expand the digital exposure for animals available for adoption in shelters across the country and raise awareness about the many benefits of adopting a pet. During the month of October, Fido – a cardboard cutout ambassador for dogs in every city – will be crisscrossing the country to illustrate how easy it is to picture a shelter pet in your daily life and encourage animal adoption.
