#Ad – We recently teamed up with Brookdale Senior Living to promote pet adoption with the Humane Society of Tampa Bay. The shelter brought 5 adoptable animals to sit with Brookdale residents for a photo shoot. 

The Brookdale residents really enjoyed interacting with the dogs and the dogs really enjoyed their time away from the shelter! 

Socializing shelter dogs outside of the shelter helps reduce their stress build their confidence and allows their true personality to shine—making them more adoptable. It also gives potential adopters a better sense of how the dog behaves in a real-world environment.

As a bonus…2 of the 5 dogs got adopted by the staff at Brookdale Senior Living. 

Seniors 65+ also get 50% off the adoption fee at the Humane Society of Tampa Bay.
