The Buildproof Buddies program is an active effort to encourage the adoption of pets at animal rescue shelters. According to The Humane Society of the United States, 6-8 million pets enter shelters each year while only 3-4 million leave with loving families. Only 18% of family pets are adopted from pet shelters, while over 3 million pets are euthanized each year due to over-population of U.S. animal shelters.

Visit the Buildproof Buddies website and help promote the adoption of these pets!

Together we can provide secure homes for our furry friends!
