Find out How to Help Dogs in Need During October with the PEDIGREE® “You Buy, We Give” program. Easy to do and you’ll feel good for helping.
Our youngest daughter Leightyn was only 18 months old when we brought our dog Wookie (rhymes with Cookie) into our home. It took her awhile to warm up to Wookie as she was just little herself. Gradually though we noticed a bond forming between Leightyn and Wookie that no one else in the family shared.
The two of them have somewhat of an understanding if you will, they spend their special time together which usually entails Leightyn cuddling with Wookie when she needs her the most. As the youngest child of 6, Leightyn has had to find her own special spot in our family, often she struggles with being heard and understood. Wookie is her Best Fur Friend, she has a calming effect on Leightyn and for that we are very appreciative.
Leightyn has now started preschool and has been given special responsibilities or “jobs” within her classroom. To tie into this personal growth we’ve decided to give her some “Wookie Jobs” at home. Simple tasks which help her to understand some of the many responsibilities that come along with pet ownership.
Wookie Jobs such as:
- Giving her a clean blanket for her crate.
- Filling her water bowl throughout the day.
- Gathering her toys from around the house.
- Giving her a PEDIGREE® DENTASTIX™ Dog Treat.
Leightyn takes her Wookie Jobs very seriously and rarely has to be reminded. And Wookie knows that her girl is taking extra special care of her BFF.
We enjoy giving back and helping our children appreciate the importance of doing so. An example of giving back can be as simple as purchasing PEDIGREE® products at Sam’s Club. How you may ask? During the month of October PEDIGREE® purchases at Sam’s Club will give a dog in need a bowl of food as part of their “You Buy. We Give” initiative. Doesn’t get much easier than that, right?
You are already shopping at Sam’s Club, why not pick up some PEDIGREE® and help out a dog in need? Both your pet and a dog in need are benefiting simply by purchasing a PEDIGREE® product, and there’s many products available at Sam’s Club to choose from.
Doesn’t it feel good to give? Helping our kids understand responsibilities as humans is part of parenting. Why not start at home with our furriest of friends and the PEDIGREE® “You Buy. We Give” initiative at Sam’s Club during the month of October? I think it’s a great place to start.
I can’t imagine not owning a dog! My kids have always had a dog! They teach them so much!
This is outstanding! I’m going to go out and tell everyone I know to buy Pedigree now. I love this!
Whenever we get extra dog supplies, we donate to our local shelter. They are always in need of items for the pups in the shelter.
It sounds like your dog is really well taken care of. These are some great ideas for taking care of your dog in October. Thanks for sharing.
What an adorable dog! I don’t have any dogs, but I do have cats. I love to help out with the animal shelter when I can. I love animals!
I love being able to help dogs find forever homes — especially during October 🙂 We have been giving donations to our local shelter lately to help 🙂
This dog is so cute. I love it when companies give back. I will have to share this with my friends with dogs.
Wow, this is a lovely cause. I am so sad when I see stray dogs on the streets, good to know about this.
What a cute pup! We have two dogs at home (trying to convince hubby on a third), I’m a total animal lover. We’ll have to check these out!
You dog is so cute. My dogs liked pedigree dog food and the chew bones.
My youngest has grown up with our dogs too. I love to watch him interact with them.
Your fur baby is adorable. My buddy loves the Pedigree treats so I’ll have to pick some treats for him at Sams Club and help dogs in need in the process.
It’s heartbreaking to think about how many animals are in shelters. Great to see the things people do to take care of them.
My dogs are pedigree dogs! These treats are their favorites! i didn’t know we were helping other dogs buy purchasing what they love!
We just bought a huge bag of Pedigree dog food for our two fur babies. I haven’t let my dogs tried this treat yet.
I’ve never owned a dog but this is great cause to help the little pups out. Thanks for sharing. – Yolonda
