Was reading on Dogchannel that PetCo has now raised $4Million for animal welfare efforts through its Tree of Hope fundraiser and Petsmart is not celebrating its 4 millionth adoption.
During the holiday season Petco invites its customers to donate money to the Tree of Hope fundraiser, they say that donations reached $4 million which is 30% more than last year (2008). Half of that money will go the animal welfare organizations and the other half will go to regional programs and relief efforts
As for petsmart, in Rockaway, NJ Chloe a collie mix was adopted out and she marked the 4 millionth pet to be adopted from the Petsmart charities adoption center in the US.
