Coastal Pet Rescue Awarded a One-Year Supply of PEDIGREE Dog Food
(Savannah, GA) - April 01, 2005
This past Valentine’s Day weekend PEDIGREE Food for Dogs held the Dogs Rule Adoption Drive to encourage would-be dog owners to adopt a dog from a shelter or breed rescue organization.
The adoption program was held to raise awareness of the plight of homeless dogs across the country.
To congratulate people who adopted a dog Valentine’s Day weekend and thank them for adopting from a shelter or breed rescue organization, PEDGIREE has donated a one-year supply of dry dog food to the first 1,000 people who adopted a dog as part of the program.
Additionally, to recognize the outstanding work of shelters and breed rescue organizations, PEDIGREE is donating a matching one-year supply of PEDIGREE dry dog food (for one dog) to each of the shelters where the first 1,000 adoptions took place.
Pops, a 9-week-old boxer mix puppy who had been turned over to Coastal Pet Rescue after his owner was arrested for cocaine distribution, was adopted on February 13th by a family in Atlanta.
His new family submitted the paperwork for the adoption drive, and, as a result, Coastal Pet Rescue was also awarded a one-year supply of PEDIGREE dry dog food for one dog.
Coastal Pet Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit animal rescue organization dedicated to saving the lives of homeless, abused and neglected dogs and cats in Savannah and surrounding areas. Founded in February 2003, Coastal Pet Rescue changes the lives of homeless pets in Chatham, Bryan and Effingham Counties through its foster home program and small capacity shelter, Camp Pawsawhile Retreat.
