THE MISSIONHelping shelter dogs get seen, get loved, and get home.

Changing the way
we see shelter dogs.

You may know me from adventures with Marshall and Benny. Through Cleared for Adoption, I’m using that same love of dogs and adventure to challenge the stigma that shelter dogs are unwanted. Being in a shelter doesn’t make a dog any less worthy of love or a place to call home.

An airplane ride. A pup cup. A chance to be themselves. Our Shelter Skip Days bring joy and possibility to the adoption conversation, using our platform to showcase the incredible personalities waiting at local shelters.

We’re helping dogs find their forever homes and people find their “heart dog,” that once-in-a-lifetime connection they might never have expected. Sometimes, seeing a dog in a different light is all it takes to picture them as part of your family.
