Fashion photographer Richard Phibbs is back with another batch of adorable adoption glamour shots for the Humane Society of New York.
Since shelter animals with flattering photos tend to be adopted
quicker, Phibbs donates his services to HSNY, snapping pets in snazzy
bow-ties, hats and scarves. All of the dogs and cats in this gallery are
ready to go home and if you have any questions about any of the furry
faces featured here, HSNY is happy to answer them at (212) 752-4842. Below, a little background info from HSNY executive director Sandra DeFeo on some of these pups and kitties in need of homes.
Tigris is six months old, blind and was found soaked after the tail-end of Hurricane Irene passed through New York this summer. She's very sweet and loves other cats.
Cano has been at the Humane Society for over a year now due to a bad leg injury he arrived with. He is now fully recovered, feeling great and looking for a home where he can be the only dog.
Dominique had a broken leg when she arrived but has since recovered. (You might remember her from our December post, which featured her with a tiny cast on.)
Zoe was recently adopted but was returned because she was having a hard time getting along with other dogs. DeFeo says she can be a bit of a bully but is very funny and just needs to find a home where she's the center of attention, without kids or other animals.
Mia, Beauregarde, Cornwallis, Grace and Guinevere all belonged to the same owner, who became homeless and could no longer care for the dogs.
Ashton is "exuberant" and needs a home where he can romp around and get a lot of exercise.
Both Hope and Sunny were adopted from kill shelters in the South. They were brought to New York as potential additions to the musical Annie as Sandy. Hope didn't make the cut but Sunny might still be used in the production.
