Here is a letter from one grateful humane society and the award we received from the Petco Foundation for our efforts in helping the lost pets of Hurricane Katrina. After the hurricane, we made arrangements with our distributors nationwide as well as distributors near the area, to ensure that the food was actually getting to the animals in need, instead of sitting in trucks or warehouses. We also helped to fill up private trucks heading down to the Gulf area.

Sincerely,

Dear Natural Balance,

I wanted to express my deepest thanks for sending coupons for the care of our Katrina dogs. Our Border Collie loved the food and at first this is all we could get her to eat. I brought some from home and we had a winner. She gained the weight she needed to gain and became a healthy and happy dog. She was adopted by a lovely couple and has a house mate Border Collie to be buddies with. We heard this weekend that all is going well and the dog has adjusted wonderfully.

Thank you for caring for these special "orphans of the storm". I am attaching some pictures of the dogs you helped. We have one left to adopt.
