Hey Fido, Reduce Your Carbon Pawprint
Furry, adorable little Fido couldn’t be making much of an impact on the environment could he? Well, dog fanatics might not want to think about all the plastic doggy poo bags going in the garbage, heavy dog food that’s getting shipped at a high carbon cost (and it often has lots of additives) and dog toys made of plastic. But a few smart eco products can help reduce your pup’s carbon pawprint.
Choose a leash that’s made from eco-friendly materials like a hemp Planet Dog leash. Hemp has a short growth cycle of only 100-120 days, which means it’s highly renewable and can be harvested more often than traditional fibers. Play fetch with West Paw Designs’ Hurley, a non-toxic, latex-free, recyclable bone that was manufactured with virtually zero waste. And reward your pooch with a 100% Certified Organic biscuit treat from Wagatha’s.
Don’t forget to show off your (and in turn, your dog’s) committment to being green with Plant Dog’s Reduce Your Carbon Pawprint Green T, which is printed with safe inks on 100% Certified Organic cotton and manufactured using partial wind and solar power.
