Melanie, one of the dogs being cared for at the ASPCA adoption center, sits behind a treat hole in her kennel at the ASPCA, Friday, April 21, 2023, on the Upper West Side neighborhood of New York. While the Westminster Kennel Club crowns the cream of the canine elite on one of tennis' most storied courts next week, another 19th-century institution across town will be tending to dogs that have had far more troubled lives.
Bershadker, for his part, says ASPCA leaders “don't have a problem with purebreds, but we want them to be responsibly bred.” “Regardless of where these animals are coming from, these are great pets. They just need a little bit of help to just get them over the hump and get them into the rest of their life,” Lopez said.
Bershadker says the organization affects hundreds of thousands of animals annually, and its marketing communications form “an essential part of the ASPCA’s lifesaving work” by increasing public awareness and action. Westminster also is giving $5,000 apiece to the Newfoundland Club of America, which has a rescue arm that found new homes for 67 Newfs last year, and to Lagotto Romagnolo Dog Rescue.
