America's Pet Debate

While watching “Dogs 101,” a commercial aired for the “America’s Pet Debate.” Curious, I visited www.americaspetdebate.com  for more information.

Sponsored by Purina, the contest promises to settle “one and for all” the question: is America a cat or dog country? For every vote, Purina will give $1 toward Pet Partner’s Veteran Programs. (The maximum donation is $100,000.) According to the website, the donation will help fund visits to veterans from therapy animal teams. The contest ends November 9. You can vote daily for your preference – cat or dog.

Regardless of your political leanings, I am sure we can all agree that our veterans deserve support. As of yesterday afternoon, over $55,000 had been raised.

The contest is fun. You can see the preference for each state by clicking on the Current Results tab at the top. It was leaning more towards “Team Cat” yesterday afternoon, so all you dog lovers should log in and vote!

While watching the same agility show, I also saw another advertisement for a different website: Barknetwork.com. This website is “for the active dog,” according to the site’s ad.

Like petcentric.com, the site is sponsored by Purina. You can expect plenty of their ads, of course. It is an interesting site where you can watch videos from agility challenges and search for events in your area. Check it out.

While watching a dog agility show over the weekend, we heard about a website: petcentric.com. Sure, Purina is the sponsor of the site, and you will see lots of ads for their food.

It is still a neat site, though. I especially like the section where you can search for stuff in your area such as dog parks, groomers, et cetera. Enjoy!
