Pedigree's "Write A Post, Help A Dog" 2011 Campaign!

We're thrilled to help kick off Pedigree's "Write A Post, Help A Dog" 2011 Campaign! 

 Did you realize that in 2010, Pedigree donated 7,820 pounds of its Healthy Longevity dog food to shelter animals-all because the pet blogging community came together and wrote 476 posts (garnering a 20 pound food donation per post) touting this campaign?  Pedigree donated this massive quantity of much needed food to two shelters renowned for their care of senior dogs: Muttville Senior Dog Rescue in San Francisco and Castaway Critters in Harrisburg, Pa.


And Pedigree has stepped up to the plate (or should we say "bowl") again this year! Pedigree's 2011 goal is to help raise awareness of  the Pedigree Foundation-a 501(C)(3) nonprofit organization-committed to helping dogs by providing grants to shelters and rescue groups and by encouraging dog adoption.

Here's how you can help in 2011:
Spread the good word about this generous campaign by writing a post on your blog that briefly explains this year's "Write a Post, Help a Dog" drive, and once again Pedigree will donate 20 pounds of food for each blogger's post, up to a whopping 10,000 pounds of their newest-and best ever-dry food recipe!

 Here's what to include in your post:
"The Write a Post, Help a Dog" program is aimed at raising awareness and food for the more than four million dogs that wind up in shelters and breed rescues each year.
For each blog post mentioning the Pedigree Foundation from now until midnight ET on September 3, Pedigree will donate 20 pounds of its new dry Pedigree recipe food for dogs -- its best recipe ever -- to a shelter, because every dog deserves leading nutrition.
The Pedigree Foundation -- a 501 (C)(3) nonprofit organization is committed to helping dogs by providing grants to shelters and rescues and encouraging dog adoption. This year the Foundation has already raised more than $376,570 against its goal of $1.5 million to carry out its work to fund grants that not only help shelters operate, but to further shelter innovations.
The Pedigree Foundation depends on charitable contributions from individuals to carry out its mission to help dogs find loving homes.
