An Interesting Story About the Making of Our New St. Louis Public Service Announcement…

David Backes Shoot We’re thrilled to tell you that 2011 All-Star NHL hockey player David Backes of the St. Louis Blues and his amazing wife Kelly are helping us launch our next regional pro-adoption campaign! This campaign, which will launch next month in St. Louis, will feature the Backes family (along with our wonderful friends Mark Buehrle of the White Sox and his wife Jamie) on billboards and televised PSAs. Look for more information about this next month. In the meantime, though, for an interesting and drama-filled story about what happened right after our billboard photo shoot, see Pia Salk’s blog on MarthaStewart.com(Photo from David Backes Shoot: Adopt-a-Pet.com’s Abbie Moore with David and Kelly Backes.)
