Modern Family star Sarah Hyland recently celebrated the launch of a campaign which is helping shelter pets who have just found their forever families embark on a clean start in their new home.
According to the Swiffer Cleaning Index, half of Americans surveyed stated that one of the top deterrents for potential pet parents to welcoming a canine or cat into a home is concern about pet hair and shedding. Swiffer’s year-long partnership with the ASPCA to find families for adorable adoptables will help to wipe away that worry.
Along with her four-pawed pal, Barkley Bixby, and dogs from the ASPCA Adoption Center who are hoping to land starring roles in the lives of pet parents, Sarah Hyland promoted the Swiffer Effect campaign by making a Big Green Box product donation and hosting a pet appreciation party which marked the culmination of a recent ASPCA-sponsored nationwide Mega Match-a-thon adoption weekend, with Swiffer presenting each of the 4,865 adopters with a coupon for a new Swiffer Sweeper. The Swiffer Effect movement also included the donation of one of the brand’s Big Green Boxes filled with cleaning tools to each of the adopt-a-thon’s participating shelters.
“I love being a mom to my dog Barkley Bixby and can’t imagine life without him,” the actress stated at the celebratory party. “In fact, I have a little habit of sometimes grooming him myself which causes a hairy mess on my floor. Like most people, I really hate dog hair tumbleweeds so I use my Swiffer Sweeper all the time–it’s quick and easy so I can spend more time playing with Barkley on the floor versus cleaning them!
