(PRESS RELEASE) SAN FRANCISCO, CA — V-dog has recently partnered with PETA to support their summer doghouse fundraising campaign in July. This annual program provides doghouses to backyard dogs in need of shelter from the scorching summer heat and freezing winter cold. The US-based vegan dog food company will be donating their popular plant-based kibble, Kinder Kibble, to motivate animal lovers to give.
“Providing adequate housing to dogs is the baseline for proper treatment and together with PETA, we’re excited to help dogs in need of shelter, basic proper care and love,” said Lindsay Rubin, v-dog’s Director of Operations.
This donation is twofold as v-dog will donate 30lb bags of Kinder Kibble to the PETA shelter as part of PETA’s matching challenge: For each of the first 1,200 donations v-dog will donate 5 lbs of Kinder Kibble to the PETA shelter, totaling about 6,000 pounds of food.
“V-Dog’s donation will not only help PETA feed nutritious food to dogs in dire straits, but also raise urgently-needed funds to provide ‘outside dogs’ with the protection and care they desperately need,” said Emily Allen, Director, Community Animal Project at PETA.

“At v-dog, we believe all animals deserve rights, compassion and care. We’re excited to join PETA and help do the most good for these dogs in need,” said Rubin.
PETA’s doghouse program has delivered more than 6,500 doghouses to dogs in need since 2000.
