For The Animals
If you happen to be near or in your local PetSmart store in the next couple of weeks, please think about donating to this very worthwhile charity. For just a dollar you could help save the life of an animal:
The Just A Buck, Change Their Luck campaign is an annual PetSmart Charities fundraiser that supports local animal welfare agencies. Funds raised are used by our thousands of agency partners to support spay/neuter, adoption, retention, and education programs in local communities.
