July 27, 1929 Saturday Evening Post cover by McClelland Barclay, scan of original cover. McClelland Barclay (1891–1943) was born in St. Louis and lived with his aunt and uncle in Washington, DC after his mother died. He studied first at the Art Institute of Chicago and later at the Art Students League in New York City. He began illustrating popular magazines in 1912. "Dapper Couple" was the first of five covers Barclay painted for the Saturday Evening Post between 1929 and 1941. His Post covers were characterized by bold colors and except for the last one, heavy outlines with white backgrounds. Some of his best-known images were the "Body by Fisher" series of ads for General Motors in the 1930s. His 20-year-old second wife Helene was the model for the "Fisher Body Girl". As a Lieutenant Commander in the United States Naval Reserve, Barclay created some of the most recognizable recruiting posters of World War II. While serving as a combat artist he was killed in action in 1943 when his landing craft was torpedoed in the Pacific theater.

Mission Statement
Countless dogs are without homes and in need of assistance. These are dogs who would make wonderful and faithful companions if only they could connect with the right person or family. We have made it our mission to help them do this. At the same time we hope to enrich the lives of those who adopt them.
