Shepard Fairey - Adopt stickerYear: 2009 
Technique: Screen Print 
Size: 4 X 6 Mint conditionNotes:The day Obama stated his interest in adopting a dog from the shelter was a slightly brighter one for the approximately 7 million adoptable dogs & cats killed each year in this country. The staggering reality is that for each one sold at a pet store or by a breeder, another perfectly worthy one is killed. Our nations shelters are filled to capacity with all kinds of amazing adoptable animals including, as Obama put it, �Mutts like me.� 
On the heels of Obama�s comment, I got a call from Pia Salk, an animal advocate who works with North America�s largest non-profit pet adoption website, . Pia simply asked if I might be willing to collaborate on a way to have my art help these animals. 
As most of you know, I�m a big believer in speaking up for all who suffer injustice, regardless of gender, race, sexual orientation or in this case, species! And I�m all for adopting from the shelter. My wife and I share our home with 2 pooches, George and Weezie, who is a rescue. They are the happy canine siblings to our 2 human daughters. 
The image I created for this print reminds me of a dog I had as kid, a mutt named Honey.Shepard Fairey - Adopt stickerYear: 2009
