About This Project
Summary
Just in time for Valentine’s Day, PETA teamed up with breakout Love Island USA star Leah Kateb (8.3M+ social reach) and her adopted dog Blue for a sweet adoption campaign. With the theme “Couple Up with Adoption. Dump a Breeder,” it mixed eye-catching visuals, Leah’s star power, and authentic, heartfelt storytelling to drive major awareness for dog adoption across social media, press, and influencer channels.
