Our Media Partners
Thank you to the following outlets for highlighting AC&C animals on a regular basis.
The Today Show, Bow to Wow
Thanks to Animal Advocate Jill Rappaport, each month The Today Show features an award winning segment called Bow-to-Wow, in which dogs selected from AC&C are groomed and found loving homes. This year we are celebrating our fourth anniversary. The show has been extremely successful with a 100 percent adoption success record! Celebrities, such as Olympic Gold Medalist Michael Phelps, country star John Rich, and Donald Trump have walked dogs on the show for us or adopted one of the super-cute canines.
NBC News, Saturday mornings
Each Saturday morning for the past eight years, NBC has featured a Pet Adoption segment for AC&C dogs and cats. Three animals available for adoption are featured along with helpful tips about properly caring for your pet. We also mention upcoming adoption and fund raising events so if people cannot adopt they can support AC&C in other ways.
Canarsie Courier, Pet of the Week
The Canarsie Courier is an independent weekly newspaper that is distributed in many Brooklyn communities. Each week they generously profile a dog or cat from AC&C that is available for adoption at our Brooklyn Care Center.
