Pet-friendly cities are getting a paw print of approval. Mars Petcare recently introduced the Better City for Pets certification in an effort to create more pet-friendly places in the country. Via: People Pets
Mars Petcare created this certification as part of its Better Cities for Pets program, which works with non-profits, local government and businesses to make towns more welcoming to pets, so everyone who wants to can benefit from their presence. The company also provides grants to make pre-friendly changes easier to achieve.
"Cities across the country are making strides toward becoming more pet friendly, but there's more work to be done," Mark Johnson, President of Mars Petcare North America, said in a statement.
The cities that apply at BetterCitiesforPets.com and receive their certification will also get a toolkit to help spread the good news, and will appear on the Better Cities for Pets site as an ideal place for pet owners to visit or move to.
