6.3 MILLION PETS ENTER ANIMAL SHELTERS EVERY YEAR.

Sir Darius' PAW-SOME Mission is to help shelter pets find their fur-ever families and homes.

In 2019, Sir Darius’s created the PAW-SOME Mission with the goal to visit and donate bow ties to animal shelters in all 50 states.

SAVING SHELTER PETS ONE BOW TIE AT A TIME.

Beaux & Paw bow ties help pets get seen, so they can find their fur-ever families and homes. Wearing a dapper bow tie gives shelter pets extra-confidence and extra-cuteness. Cuteness counts at pet shelters - this gets pets noticed!

RAISING AWARENESS FOR SHELTER PETS.

Sir Darius donates his bow ties personally and supports adoption events. He uses his social media platform to give shelter pets more exposure to help them find their fur-ever families and homes.

🐾 DAPPER AND ADORABLE PETS LOOKING FOR THEIR FUR-EVER FAMILIES AND HOMES. 🐾
Hi! I'm Gonzo.

I am a four-year-old hound mix. You may think of me as a silly, fun-loving, and quirky boy based on my name. If you are, you would be right! I love to play and enjoy spending time with people. I am gentle and laid back and would make a great companion for people of all ages. Seriously though, I have been in the shelter system for too long. I am looking for a family that I can call my own and am hoping it is you!

If you are interested in meeting me please call 973-386-0590 and tell them Sir Darius sent you!

Meet Angel!

Meet our stunning Basset Hound mix named Angel. She has an angular limb deformity and an overbite, but that adds to her cuteness! Angel came to us last year, and we were sure she would get adopted quickly because of her loving nature towards people and short stature.

Angel does not get too much interest at the shelter. We hope to find someone or someplace where she will be loved and cared for as she deserves. Angel is exceptionally loving towards people of all ages.

Meet PRETZEL!

This heartbreaker is a 10-year-old terrier mix weighing roughly 50lbs. Pretzel came to us when her owner had to move into an assisted living facility and was no longer able to care for her. Understandably, she was confused in the shelter and missing her home life, so she is currently taking a shelter break with one of our fantastic fosters. Here's what Pretzel's foster has to say about her: "Pretzel is great! She has been following me around my apartment since we got back from the shelter. She takes turns between lying on the couch, rug, or armchair, and sits next to me on the couch. When I cook dinner she comes into the kitchen and sits on a blanket and watches me. She’s been smiling and panting the whole time she’s here and was willing to play if I got her excited."

🦁 MEET LION! 👋

Lion is 3 year old, male, maltese mix that is looking for a forever home. 🧡 He loves to play with balls, and bop them with his nose like a dolphin lol. 🐳
He’s been great with the other dogs, but might to better with a family without kids as he doesn’t have a lot of practice with boundaries 😂

Meet Ganba!

Puppy brothers Ganba and Tora are survivors!

They are smart and look to their people for guidance, these boys are eager to please and ready to steal your heart. 🤗

Hi, I'm Willow!

The stress of being at the rescue is taking its toll on Willow. It’s heart wrenching to watch her panicked, bouncing off of her kennel walls because she’s surrounded by her most major stressor (other dogs) day after day.

We try to give her as many breaks in our basement as possible but although breaks are better than nothing, they cannot compare to being in a foster home.

Meet Dottie!

Things haven't always been so easy for five-year-old Dottie. After being found in an apartment all by herself, she is happy to be with her friends at HRA! She has quickly won over the hearts of staff and volunteers with her chirping hellos and love of all things pets. She may be a bit shy when she initially meets you, but with some patience and help from her favorite treats, she will be your best friend in no time!

Is there room for this sweet girl in your family? Schedule a meet and greet with Dottie at Humane Rescue Alliance DC.

Hi, I'm Strawberry Shortcake!

Can you imagine coming home to this face everyday?! Strawberry Shortcake is just as sweet as her name! This six-year-old enjoys the company of both people and pups. She is working hard on her leash manners, but with the help of some spray cheese and patience from her new family, she will get the hang of it in no time!
