Helping The Dog’s Planet

Planet Dog was founded in Portland, Maine in 1997 and is a retailer of award-winning products for your dog. They offer more than 50 dog toys that are fun while being well designed and safe.

They also sell dog apparel and dog treats. You may order on line, or if you prefer a brick and morotr store, Planet Dog has an indexed map of the closest store to your location that sells their products.

For example, on the Plant Dog website, you can learn about the Orbee-Tuff® ball - a top rated dog toy called by some the "world's best dog ball". The ball was designed with a special treat spot (no pun intended) for hiding kibble, spreads and other tasty treats dogs love. Or, the Soar-Play, a flying, frisbee-like disk that is easy to clean and has a minty scent, as opposed to a dog-breath scent.

You should feel especially good about your purchases from Planet Dog because they offer a percentage of every sale directly to their Planet Dog Foundation. The mission of the Planet Dog Foundation is to promote and celebrate programs in which dogs serve and support their best friends (us).

Since 2000, Planet Dog Philanthropy has awarded 21 grants totaling more than $75,000 to organizations in the New England area.  "The response to our grant program has been overwhelming," says a company representative. It demonstrates the dire need for funding for service dog organizations". "As a small company doing big things, we are supporting like-minded organizations that will most benefit from our support," says Alex Fisher, Planet Dog's co-founder and Chief Creative Officer.
