Hello everyone. I'm Doctor Yola Little Chippy, and welcome back to Hills Pet Talk. Today, we're shifting our focus to a heartwarming initiative that has been making significant impact across the nation for a decade now. It is about finding loving homes for our furry friends in need. I'm talking about Clear the shelters, NBC Universal Locals nationwide pet adoption and donation campaign returning for its 10th anniversary this year in August. Today I'm joined by Caroline Chulick, EVP of US Marketing at Hills Pet Nutrition to discuss this year's event and how we can make it the best event yet. Hello, Caroline. Hello Doctor Yola, it's great to see you. It's great to see you too. So I have a couple of questions for you with little Chippy. The first question is describe clear the shelters and why this is a win win for homeless pets, shelters and hills. I love this topic. I will try to keep it brief, although I could talk forever. So yellow. We partner with MBC Universal Local to do this annual Clear the Shelters campaign, which really helps, as you mentioned, fundraise and adoption for, you know, trying to find pets loving homes across the nation. And believe it or not, this is a big year, Doctor Yola, because Clear the Shelters is celebrating its 10th anniversary and would you believe that? In that time, they have helped over a million pets get adopted. So obviously a big win for pets and it, you know, it works really well for us here at Hills because it's so outlined to our mission. This is actually the 7th consecutive year that we will be there national sponsor. And as you know, it goes so well to our, our campaign of, of, you know, clear of, of clearing the shelters and really, you know, supporting, you know, pets across the country and all the work that we do with our food, shelter and love program, right? What I heard was 10 million. And then the one million, 1,000,010 years, yes, let me get that right. So, so 1,000,000 pets and 10 years of this amazing program. So what? So can I ask what the goal is for 20/24? Yeah. I mean, obviously we hit the amazing million milestone last year, so we're hoping for. We're hoping for over, umm, you know, really 100,000 tens of thousands, maybe even hopefully 100,000 pets adopted in this time frame. And you know, you'll let you know as well as I do the, the shelters are really in, in crisis right now, right? More dogs and cats are coming in that are going out. And so they're at capacity, in many cases over capacity. And so this campaign really couldn't come at a better time, you know, to order and help in order to help those dogs and cats really that are in need and these shelters and their workers. Whether I need as well. Right, right, right. And I've been on the ground during one of these events and they're most of the years. And it is fantastic to be part of this, this amazing day. Or it's now a month even that. Yeah. Clear the shelter organizes. So how can people get involved? Absolutely, we need you. So from August 10th to September 10th, that is the time frame this year many ways, right? Come out like as you mentioned, Doctor Yellen, as you've been such a supporter, you know, to help during those months. If you're able to adopt just like you did with Chippy there, obviously that would be a huge help. But many people are not in the position to adopt and that's okay. Fostering is an incredible way to help as well. Volunteering, you know, whether it's to go cuddle those. Those cuties or help with laundry, I mean really take photos of the pets so they are, you know, more adoptable. Honestly, any of your time and efforts are incredibly, incredibly needed all year round, but certainly during during that time frame of August 10th to September 10th. And you could always find more at Hills cleartheshelter.com. And that's amazing. And it just one to due to mention shipping because shipping was a foster. He was a shelter animal, but he was. Really young who has fostered for for a couple of weeks and then we got him and you know, he has been the best dog ever. So get your dogs from the shelter. It's really, really important and and clear the shelters is such an amazing event. So thank you so much for being on with us. Thank you for having me. We'll see you at clear the shelters. Absolutely. Before we go, let's take a moment to celebrate. Clear the Shelters, a beacon of hope for animals across the country. With each adoption, we're not only giving these animals a second chance at life, but also filling homes with immeasurable joy and love. Thank you, Caroline, for sharing more about what we can expect in August. And until next time, I'm Doctor Yola. This is little Chippy thanking you for joining us at Hills Pet Talk. And don't forget, science did that.

Online pet service platform Rover.com released its fifth-annual True Cost of Pet Parenthood report today and found that like most things in life, the price of pet ownership has also increased. 🐾 Pet food has increased up to 130% in some cases for dogs, and 120% for cats. “In terms of financial stressors, pet food comes in second place, followed by supplements and medications, treats and toys, [and] grooming and accessories,” states the report. 🐱🐶 At Parachutes for Pets we strive to relieve this stress, but honestly, we are feeling the strain. Donations have decreased by 50% from last year at this time. We need your support more than ever to keep providing critical programming. 🙏 How can you help? Share this post. Shop for your next pet item in our pet thrift store. Become a monthly donor. Become a one time donor.

Love my job and love the work One Tail at a Time does to support Chicago pets and pet parents. So glad Figo Pet Insurance could support them by donating 43K pounds of pet food to One Tail's Pet Mutual Aid Center, which provides resources to pet parents in need. The behind-the-scenes work it took to make this donation happen was one of the more interesting exercises in problem-solving I've encountered in my career so far, and involved tackling questions like: - "How does one move 43K pounds of food from one place to another?" (Answer: A big truck!) - "Can you fit a semi-truck in a standard Chicago alley?" (Answer: No! So then, we'll need several slightly smaller trucks...) - "How quickly can One Tail assemble volunteers to move this much pet food?" (Answer: Extremely quickly!) - "What do you do when Costco doesn't accept your corporate card because (duh) Costco warehouses don't take AmEx?" (Answer: Get creative!) All made totally worth it (and honestly a ton of fun) by collaborating with great partners and team members. Shout out to our friends at Costco Wholesale for helping to make this donation possible.

Last month, we partnered with One Tail at a Time and Costco Wholesale to organize a pet food drive. Our goal was straightforward yet ambitious: gather as many pet food donations as possible and match each one, pound for pound. Thanks to the generosity of our community and the support of our partners, we managed to collect and deliver over 43,000 pounds of pet food to OTAT! A heartfelt thank you to everyone involved – your contributions, big and small, made a world of difference. We're excited for future opportunities to make a positive difference for pets and pet parents in our communities 💙

Meet military pet and cherished companion of the Carlson Family, Nala. After a devastating house fire, the Carlsons found a temporary home for themselves but couldn't bring Nala due to rental restrictions. In order to secure boarding, Nala needs to be spayed. Enter Dogs on Deployment's Rich Setzer Memorial Fund. The Rich Setzer Memorial Fund is our lifeline for military families in need. It provides crucial financial assistance to military pet owners facing emergencies, including medical expenses, transportation costs during military moves, and basic veterinary expenses such as spay and neuter. Nala's story underscores the importance of spaying and neutering in our military community. It's not just about boarding compliance; it's about safety, reducing overpopulation, and ensuring every pet's well-being. But we're not alone in this mission. Dogs on Deployment is proud to partner with SNAP (Spay Neuter Action Project) to bring Operation Pet Wellness to military communities in San Diego County. Together, we're ensuring access to affordable spay and neuter services for military pets, making a tangible difference in the lives of our service members and their furry companions. Now, you can help make a difference too! Support military pets through Dogs on Deployment's Operation Pet Wellness initiative!
