(PRESS RELEASE) WHITE PLAINS, NY — From 11/1 – 11/31 Tall Tails committed to donating 1 blanket for every blanket sold at Polkadog stores. With the help of Polkadog customers, it was able to donate 134 blankets to two local animal shelters – Worcester Animal Rescue League (WARL) and Quincy Animal Shelter.
Blankets are a highly requested donation as they provide a layer of comfort in kennels and can be sent home with adopted dogs to ease the transition to their forever home.
In addition to the 100 Tall Tails blankets & the $1,000 worth of Polkadog treats, Tall Tails donated over 50 toys to WARL and let adoptable dogs pick their favorite toy as a special holiday gift to them.

“Tall Tails would like to thank Polkadog’s customers for their purchase of a Tall Tails blanket leading to a blanket being donated to the Worcester Animal Rescue League. Together, we were able to provide warmth and comfort to over a hundred cats and dogs in the shelter. The charitable partnership between Tall Tails & Polkadog is what makes the independent pet specialty industry special,” says George Barton, director of marketing at Tall Tails.
“We love working with like-minded brands within the industry, so when Tall Tails reached out to partner on their blanket initiative, we were ecstatic! There’s no greater feeling than seeing people come together for a great cause and being able to give back to the community, especially around the holidays. It was a day I’ll never forget!” says Kelsey Sora, director of marketing at Polkadog.
