Nylabone Donates $25,000 to Best Friends Animal Society in Honor of National Pet Month

Nylabone, an iconic brand in the Central Garden & Pet portfolio, announced a $25,000 donation to Best Friends Animal Society, a leading national animal welfare organization dedicated to ending the killing of dogs and cats in America’s shelters by 2025. The donation coincides with National Pet Month—a time to celebrate the many ways furry friends benefit our lives—and supports Best Friends Animal Society’s mission to bring about a time when there are no more homeless pets.

“Nylabone and Best Friends Animal Society share the same core belief: all dogs deserve loving forever homes,” said Glen S. Axelrod, President and CEO of Nylabone Products. “By supporting a like-minded organization, we are that much closer to helping as many furry friends as possible lead happier, healthier lives this National Pet Month and beyond.”

The donation is the latest initiative between Nylabone and Best Friends Animal Society, whose partnership began in 2021 in support of Hurricane Ida relief efforts in Texas.

“We’re so grateful for the ongoing support we receive from Nylabone to save dogs and cats,” said Candi Maciel, Director of Corporate Partnerships of Best Friends Animal Society. “Together we can make meaningful strides towards our goal of ending the killing of dogs and cats in America’s shelters by 2025.”

This contribution from Nylabone supports the Central Garden & Pet Impact strategy, which is dedicated to making positive changes through philanthropic work, focusing on protecting our planet, cultivating our communities, and empowering our employees. Nylabone further supports hundreds of non-profit animal welfare organizations through its Nylabone Cares program.

Committed to helping dogs find and stay in their forever homes, Nylabone Cares educates pet parents on why dogs chew and donates high-quality chew toys that promote healthy, non-destructive chewing habits.
