In addition, the organization is known as the world’s largest no-kill animal rescue and adoption center.

North Shore Animal League America stays true to their vision, which is “a future in which all companion animals find responsible, loving homes where they are free from abuse, hunger, fear, and loneliness and receive the care and respect they deserve.”

Meanwhile, six shelter dogs acted as “ball boys” at the 2018 Brazilian Tennis Open.

The adorable canines wore neck scarves and wristbands during the event.

The shelter, where the dogs are being cared for, hope that the publicity would get some families to adopt the dogs from their facility.
