Pet food manufacturer raises £2,800 for charity

After pledging 50p from the sale of each bag of Vitalin Adult Duck & Potato to Jerry Green Dog Rescue, a national dog charity, Vitalin has announced it has raised a total of £2,800.

Founded in 1961 by Jerry Green, the charity relies solely on public and corporate donations, which enables them to rescue and rehome dogs as well as educate people on important issues surrounding dog ownership.

The money raised will be used to help Jerry Green continue its vital work rescuing stray and abandoned dogs, and helping to find them loving homes.

Annabell Dennis of Vitalin said: “We are absolutely delighted that we have been able to raise over £2000 for Jerry Green Dog Rescue through the sale of Vitalin Duck and Potato. As they are a charity that is local to us, it means a lot that we are able to support them and the fantastic work they do for both dogs in Lincolnshire and across the UK.”

Combining high quality protein from 100 percent British Duck with British Potatoes and nutrient packed botanicals, Vitalin Adult Duck and Potato also has added glucosamine, chondroitin and MSM for joint health.

This hypoallergenic, grain free food provides a complete balanced diet for adult dogs aged one year and over.

Paige Chappill, fundraising and communications Officer, explains what this donation means to them: “As a charity we do not receive any Government or National Lottery funding, meaning we rely solely on the generosity of our supporters to continue helping dogs in need.

“After partnering with Vitalin in 2016-2017, they have supported our charity in numerous ways – the biggest being donating 50p of each bag of Vitalin Duck & Potato dog food back to Jerry Green Dog Rescue, which has accumulated to a fantastic £2,800 during its launch period!

“This wonderful amount of money will help make such a difference to our rescue dogs, for which we are very grateful.

“Furthermore, Vitalin have also being kind enough to donate lots of tasty prizes for our annual Fun Dog Show winners and also attended alongside offering free samples for our guests and their four legged friends.

“Their ongoing kindness and support genuinely means so much and we look forward to hopefully working together more in the future; helping even more dogs find their forever, loving homes.  Thank you Vitalin!”
