Along with our #PurpleLeashProject partner redroverorg, therealmariskahargitay and ‘Fearless Girl’ artist Kristen Visbal, we are proud to share "Courageous Together," a new statue depicting a woman and her dog, connected by a purple leash and taking a courageous first step forward, together, as survivors leaving their abuser. Nearly half of survivors will delay leaving their abuser if they can’t take their pet with them, yet only 17% of domestic violence shelters in the U.S. allow pets. By raising awareness and taking action, we are working to help drive fundamental change to the landscape of domestic violence services for survivors with pets, so no survivor has to choose between their own safety and the safety of their pet. ‘Courageous Together’ will travel across the country throughout the year, stopping first at the westminsterkennelclub Dog Show this weekend.
