The Public Building Commission of Chicago (PBC) and the Chicago Animal Care and Control (CACC) to host “Pawject Runway Fashion Show” where adoptable dogs strolled the runway in hopes of finding their forever home on Friday, June 2nd in front of the Richard J. Daley Center’s Plaza. The City of Chicago takes in thousands of unwanted animals every year. CACC protects public safety and ensures the humane care of animals through sheltering, pet placement and education. The PBC is helping to increase awareness about the CACC’s immediate need for supplies and to promote the great animals who are available for adoption. “Studies have shown that pets can decrease stress, improve health and even help children with their emotional and social skills,” Carina E. Sanchez, PBC’s executive director said. “As a pet owner, I know firsthand the joy animals can bring to your life and we at the PBC are honored to partner with CACC to find great homes and give these pets the opportunity to become beloved.” Individuals interested in donating pet supplies can visit the CACC Amazon Wish List, https://www.chicago.gov/city/en/depts/cacc/supp_info/wish_list.html.
