Nnadi, born in Virginia in his tweet- @Dericknnadi disclosed that the adoptions were the “perfect way to cap off this great season” after the Chiefs beat the San Francisco 49ers in the NFL’s.
In response, KC Pet Project, a non-profit animal shelter in Kansas City, Missouri- who are the owners of the pet shop, expressed gratitude to the Nigerian for paying an average fee of $150 for each of the 109 dogs to commemorate his epic victory at the NFL final.
“We’re so honored to partner with @DerrickNnadi who is sponsoring the adoption fees of all our adoptable dogs at our locations.
“44 pets left the shelter today (38 dogs and 6 cats) with new families and up to 30 more are going home tomorrow! Of the 109 dogs that qualified for the sponsorship, around 40-50 of those dogs will still be available after tomorrow, which is incredible. Thank you @DerrickNnadi!”
