"Sally-Sue has been waiting a long time to get adopted. The 11-year-old pit bull's been sitting in a shelter for two years, hoping to find her furever home. Now one man is on a mission to see that she does—and in a minute, you'll sense a theme. Animal advocate Scott Poore's company, Mission Driven Goods, is a pet-centric venture promoting products aimed at helping long-term shelter pets get adopted. Poore recently took out a 30-foot billboard—located where else but Mission, Kansas—featuring Sally-Sue's smiling face and a plea to potential pet parents to make room in their hearts and homes for the loving senior fur baby."
"The dogs that'll be on the billboard are the ones that have been homeless the longest. The goal is to find her not just a home, [but] the perfect home. As quickly as we do that, move onto the next shelter pet that deserves to be up there." Poore told KMBC.
Since the billboard is in the meantime a rental, Poore is working on securing permanent funding to feature more and more long term shelter pets before the public eye! When Sally Sue gets adopted from Always & Furever Midwest Animal Sanctuary, the next long term shelter resident will get their shot at fame!
