If you stop by an IKEA showroom any time in the near future, you may be surprised to find something even more adorable than assembly-required tables and their famously quirky contraptions. The Animals Lovers League Shelter and Save Our Street Dogs Shelter recently teamed up with the Swedish furniture giant to create Home For Hope, a new collaboration created to help homeless dogs find loving families.
IKEA uses their smart design to help remind people that there are countless homeless canines living in shelters who need their help. The furniture company created life-size cardboard cutouts of photographs of homeless dogs and displayed them around their showrooms to show how well homeless pets can fit into any home. They sit on colorful carpets, they stay in front of TV consoles, and they even beg by dinner tables! Shoppers can become potential adoptive parents by scanning codes on the dog's collars. Every dog has a bio and video on the Home For Hope website.
Whether people decide to adopt or not, this project has already raised a lot of money and awareness for shelter dogs. You can help spread this amazing concept to others – click on Facebook to SHARE this video with friends!
