The Guilford County Furr Frame Project's mission is to connect our community with the shelter pet population with charming photos in digital frames on display in fine local businesses that potential loving adopters, fosters, volunteers & donors frequent.

Guilford County Animal Services is in dire need of soft jerky treats & rough play toy donations for the holidays! If you are able to purchase locally & deliver during shelter hours, please do. You may also order from this list and I'll deliver them with an acknowledgment of your donation upon delivery:

Enrichment items like toys & treats are not a part of the county's budget for the animal shelter. They rely completely on donations for anything beyond operations & basic medical care. Your gifts will go a long way for the mental well-being of the shelter population ❤️🐾

This is "Lora" & she has been at the shelter several months waiting for a loving, indoor home. She was found as a stray & was likely used for breeding and then sadly dumped to fend for herself after she had several litters of puppies 😢
She deserves a loving, indoor home.

Can you help?

Today is & though the shelter is closed to the public, I'm here to take portraits of dogs & cats for The Guilford County Furr Frames Project! I think nothing could make a shelter dog's day more than having a loving, forever home & hopefully these portraits will connect them with one❤️🐾
I'd like to thank GCAS volunteer Becky Hampton for helping me weekly with the dogs for this project.
I greatly appreciate her assistance.

Furr Frames Update:

Hello all!
It was bound to happen that there would be a few frames that either were faulty or were dropped, so we are down a few frames from the projected 40 Furr Frames for Phase One. The "Final Four" of Phase One are scheduled to go out in the next week, so a few replacements are needed for those that may have reached out wanting to buy a frame when the need was met. (Link to purchase below).

So far, 131 pets that have been featured on Furr Frames have been adopted or rescued since mid-August! So while there is not a way of knowing if the frames were directly connected to the adoptions, they are absolutely increasing traffic to the shelter by getting the shelter pets on more minds & hearts 💜🐾

Furr Frames can be found on display in the following locations:

A-to-Zen Massage & Spa
Jessica Mashburn Music (On My Keyboard)
Maxie B's
Irving Park Art & Frame
The Bench Tavern
Boho Salon
Bliss & Co. Downtown Greensboro

"Shelter Pet Photo Challenge"
There can never be enough good photos/videos/social media posts promoting shelter pet adoptions.

Anyone, in ANY area can visit their local animal shelter & pick one or several pets that you take photos of with your phone.

Share the photos & a little information about them with your friends/family/co-workers & on your social media.

By doing something so simple, you are giving a homeless & usually invisible shelter pet a way to be seen, thus paving a way for them to get a loving, forever home.

If even just a handful of caring citizens would do this in every part of the country, it would make a HUGE wave for shelter pets.

Could you take 10 minutes out of your week to help a shelter pet get a home?

Homeless pets everywhere would really appreciate it & it costs nothing to help them in this way.
Are you in?

You may order them from this list & I will deliver them to the shelter!

Guilford County Furr Frames Version 9/17/19

Since the debut of Furr Frames on August 21st in Guilford County, NC, there have been 40 adoptions of shelter pets that were featured on digital frames on display at 31 fine local businesses in Guilford County.

These are the featured shelter pets that are currently available for adoption or rescue at the Guilford County Animal Shelter in Greensboro, NC.

There are currently 143 dogs & 214 cats living under the care of the shelter. The best method to humanely reduce that population is by spay/neuter. 90% of the pets that enter the shelter are not spayed/neutered which reflects irresponsible pet ownership. There are many low cost/free resources for spay/neuter in our community.

Please reach out to the shelter for a list of those resources!

Visiting the shelter is the best way to find out more about a pet featured on Furr Frames!
