The following post comes to us from David Yaskulka, Halo’s VP of Marketing Communications. David’s career has been devoted to socially responsible and highly philanthropic companies — which is what brought him to Halo (plus the lobbying from his dog Bert and cat Sterling).

“Furry signs of a down-trending economy peer dolefully from every kennel at the [local] shelter and hundreds of others across the country,” began a recent CNN report. It’s become such a tough time for thousands and thousands of now-homeless pets.

Halo is very proud to support The Amanda Foundation at this time of need. It’s a nonprofit organization that “rescues dogs and cats who, through no fault of their own, are spending their last days at City and County Shelters.”

“Bow Wow Beverly Hills” is an exciting annual event supporting The Amanda Foundation, sponsored by Halo, Purely for Pets, Tiffany & Co., The Rodeo Drive Committee, Fred Hayman, The Beverly Hills Petcare Foundation and the Beverly Hills Courier. Check out this cool ABC TV video of Hollywood coming out to support furry friends in need.

If you have any food, time or money to give, I hope you’ll join in, or find your way to your local animal shelter.
