🐾 Earth Day & Dogs: Small Steps, Big Impact

🐾 Earth Day & Dogs: Small Steps, Big Impact

Every April 22nd, Earth Day reminds us to protect the one thing we all share—our planet. But did you know your dog can be part of the solution too?

From daily walks to waste cleanups, pet parents have countless opportunities to care for the Earth with their furry best friends by their side. Whether you're a seasoned green warrior or just starting your sustainable journey, here’s how you and your dog can make Earth Day (and every day) a little cleaner, greener, and paw-sitively impactful.

1. Leave Only Pawprints
Grab a roll of The Original Poop BagsĀ® 92% and hit the trail with your pup. Scoop the poop, snag a few stray wrappers, and turn your walk into a mini clean-up. One walk, two wins—for your dog and the Earth.

2. Walk More, Drive Less

Trade one car trip this week for a walk. Your dog will thank you—and so will the air.

If you live close to your local pet store or park, consider leashing up instead of loading up. It’s a small shift that adds up over time. Fewer emissions, more tail wags. Win-win.

3. Donate to Animal Rescues Doing Good for the Planet

Some shelters and rescues go beyond saving animals—they also help protect wildlife, forests, and oceans.

Through our You Buy; We DonateĀ® program, we’ve supported efforts to protect jaguars, rescue elephants from captivity, and clean up beaches for sea turtles to safely nest. So when you stock up on poop bags with us, you’re helping!

4. Try DIY Toys & Treats

Before tossing that old towel or t-shirt, turn it into a tug toy. Reuse that peanut butter jar for a DIY treat puzzle. Reduce waste while enriching your dog’s playtime—Earth Day style.

Ā 

5. Final Woof

This Earth Day, let’s do more than plant trees or post a hashtag. Let’s act—with our dogs by our side.

Because a better planet isn’t just for us—it’s for every pup chasing butterflies, every squirrel being chased, and every pawprint left in the dirt.

Happy Earth Day, from our pack to yours. šŸŒŽšŸ¾
