Featured Manufacturer: Planet Dog

We are all familiar with the terms “recycle”, “reuse” and “reclaim”.  With an ever-increasing population of green consumers seeking corporate responsibility, a company that does not offer eco-friendly dog toy alternatives puts their loyal customer base at risk.

Many companies have jumped on the eco-friendly bandwagon.  Others have been green right from the start.  Such is the case with Planet Dog, our Featured Manufacturer of the month.

Incorporated in 1997, Planet Dog’s mission is “to amuse, explore, support, innovate, create, educate, celebrate and philanthropate–all in the name of the dog.”  The statement is evident on their website and incorporated into the products they make and the causes they support.

Planet Dog’s non-profit arm, the Planet Dog Foundation blends the best of dog and man, offering grants and gifts-in-kind to programs that support training and placement of service and working dogs.

Currently, 2% of every Planet Dog purchase is earmarked to fund their extraordinary efforts.

WelcomePup.com is proud to include Planet Dog’s Orbee-Tuff® Strawberry, Big and Lil’ Pup Orbos and famous Orbee Ball in their dog gift packages.

Not only are the toys colorful, stuffable and full of dog-loving texture, but they are non-toxic, recyclable, rinse clean and proudly made in the U.S.A.!
