Thank you, @pedigreeus!⁠Love, Seymour & Sunny💛⁠⁠These two adoptable pupperdogs were invited to their Town Hall this morning to greet all of the Associates and Ambassadors to raise adoption awareness. They received much love, nibbled on many tasty treats, plus took many pictures to promote on social media that they’re both looking for pawfect “Dogs Rule” Forever Homes! They even had “Adopt Me” business cards made for them. It was such a welcoming and wonderful day!⁠⁠Seymour and Sunny are now back at NHA, napping, dreaming, and hoping you’ll come visit them. What will make their day even better? Getting Adopted! So, please: come meet them both and make their dreams come true!⁠⁠Fun Fact: Pedigree Foundation is sponsoring Seymour and Sunny’s Adoption Fees too💛

Become a Foster, Save a Life!🐾⁠⁠Foster families are essential members of the Nashville Humane Association family and are critical to the care we provide! ⁠⁠Because shelters like NHA have limited capacity, the number of lives we help depends entirely on the number of fosters willing to open their homes to them. That includes many of our current residents who are in immediate need of a foster home!⁠⁠Don`t know if fostering is for you? Read some of our testimonials to better understand the impact it makes on both the animal and person fostering. You don`t have to be a pro to foster; you just need a little room in your home and in your heart to start.⁠⁠If you are interested in opening your home to one of our deserving shelter animals, click the link in our bio to apply today!🖤⁠⁠#fosteranimals #fosterdogs #fostercats #shelterdogs #sheltercats

Have you ever wanted to be a unicorn? Us too! Now is your chance to become a unicorn foster!🦄⁠⁠A unicorn foster is someone who has the perfect environment for an animal that has specific requirements in a home. This could mean that you have no kids, no other pets, a fenced-in yard, or maybe you don’t have visitors over often.⁠⁠We always have countless dogs in our care that are overlooked on our adoption floor because they need a specific home to thrive! The shelter is an extremely loud and stressful environment that stops these animals from showing us, and adopters, their true personalities. ⁠⁠There are so many benefits to opening your heart and home to a foster animal, not just for them but the foster too. Being in a foster home is an essential part of the process for many of our residents to find their forever homes. If you are interested in fostering, please head to the link in our bio!💜⁠⁠#fosterpets #fosteranimals #fosterdog #fostercat #fosterappreciationweek
