adoptable

These pipelines of adoptable animals—primarily, but not exclusively, moving from south to north—have become a cultural phenomenon in their own right, and a key part of a broader transformation of companion-animal welfare.

This fall, Hill’s Pet Nutrition has partnered with NBCUniversal Local to sponsor the Clear The Shelters initiative, which aims to pair more people up with adoptable dogs across the nation and helps them become the best possible dog parents.

Anyone watching Cindy’s tail wag live on Petco’s Facebook page, part of an event this past April, could shop for the vest and other items in real-time as adoptable dogs modeled them on the livestream.

This will be one of the biggest barriers Microsoft faces in making Mesh widely adoptable, as even getting the price down to half or a third of where it’s at now would leave the hardware out of reach for most consumers.
