When I talk about my Rottweilers, their impeccable bloodlines, their fancy conformation shows and rally obedience competitions, and of course, their designer grain-free and all-natural foods that I suspect might cost more than my own meals, you might assume I’m just another psycho dog snob, and wonder why I’m writing about Pedigree’s Adoption Drive.
Before there was Axel, and before there was Freya, there was Missy. Missy was possibly a purebred Rottweiler. Or maybe not. We never knew for sure. A friend of ours noticed her tied to a post at a strip mall. But at the end of the day when she passed that way again, the dog was still there. No one at the stores or a nearby construction site knew where she came from, and no one admitted to owning her. She was very underweight and covered with ticks. We took her in with the intent of finding her owner, or finding her a home. That home turned out to be with us for the rest of her life. Missy was probably the best dog we ever had. So, yeah. Believers in adoption here.
How about Pedigree, you ask? An important part of getting Missy back to an ideal weight was Pedigree Choice Cuts, particularly the Country Stew flavor. It was her food of choice and always got her appetite to perk up. And even though we’ve switched to a lot of all-natural treats for the current two, we cannot cut them off completely from Pedigree Marro Bones and Jumbones without inducing anarchy. So, yeah. Pedigree products have a place here.
So about that adoption drive? Here’s the deal:
For each blog that posts about the PEDIGREE® Adoption Drive through September 19th, PEDIGREE® will donate a bag of their new Healthy Longevity Food for Dogs to shelters nationwide. It’s simple: Write a post, help a dog.
Thursday, September 16 through Sunday, September 19, the Pedigree BlogPaws bloggers will host a Blog Hop, to help raise awareness for the “Write a post, help a dog” effort.
Hopefully you’ll see this so you can join in, too. Quick, quick, go and write your post! Then go here to check in and be counted.
