(CNN) — These rescue dogs are having a hard time getting adopted. But thanks to a local brewery in Fargo, North Dakota, they are now featured on beer cans in hopes to find them a forever home.
Ryan told CNN that he has volunteered with the North Dakota rescue group for over four years, and the “One-der” dogs have a special place in his heart, especially Bizzy who he fostered.
Tawny Hewitt, the brewery’s social media and marketing manager, told CNN they had 40 cases made with the special labels and during Monday night’s event they sold 25. The public can still buy a six pack through the end of the week and the rest will be donated to the rescue group. A portion of the proceeds from the sales will also be donated to the rescue group.
“We hope that having these dogs featured on the cans will help raise awareness and shine a spotlight on them where they might normally have been overlooked,” Fargo Brewing Company told CNN in a statement.
Ryan said that the response from the community has been amazing and heartwarming.
“This really has been great exposure for these harder to adopt dogs, and I would be surprised if this doesn’t lead to an adoption or two.”
