Everyone wants to adopt a little cute puppy, with those big wide eyes, and a body the size of your foot.
We all prefer puppies when it comes to adopting a pet, and we agree that these cute tiny puppies make our heart happy. Kids also love puppies, but it needs a lot of work and time that goes into training these baby animals. Adult dogs (7+ years), unlike pups, hardly find a home with only a 25% adoption rate, because few people prefer to adopt adult dogs, So, one organization came up with a genius marketing strategy to show what is the benefit to adopting these adult dogs.
The Animal Protective Association of St. Louis started the “Grown-A** Adult” PR campaign to promote the benefits of adult dog ownership. In a series of print ads and the hashtags #growna**adult and #adoptadult, the organization said that while puppies are cute – “grown-a**” adult dogs know everything better, they don’ pee on your carpet. Scroll down below to check out their hilarious posters.
“The Animal Protective Association of Missouri is a non-profit organization dedicated to bringing people and pets together, advancing humane education and creating programs beneficial to the human/animal bond.” Each pet adopted at the APA is spayed/neutered, micro-chipped and fully vaccinated. They also come with 14-day wellness coverage, a leash/collar and a starter bag of Purina premium dog food.
This is great, these posters are really hilarious and we hope they could help adult dogs to get their home soon.
