Freshpet®, the only U.S. manufacturer and marketer of fresh, refrigerated food for dogs, believex that good nutrition leads to a healthier life for our companion animals. They are proud to announce the formation of The Freshpet® Foundation, a 501(c) (3) non-profit charitable organization, whose mission is to support canine nutritional research in the areas of prevention, care and treatment of diseases in dogs, including cancer. The foundation's first major fundraising initiative is Bark for the Cure, a five kilometer run/walk for people and their dogs, which will be followed by a post-race celebration that includes disc dog and agility dog exhibitions, a search & rescue dog demonstration, food, music and various pet and human related products and services. All proceeds from Bark for the Cure will be donated to The Freshpet Foundation.

The Freshpet Foundation is committed to helping our closest 
companions lead long, healthy and disease-free lives. 
 
Mid-Atlantic Basset Hound Rescue will have a table at the BARK FOR THE CURE event on May 9th. Freshpet has been very generous in their donations of food and treats to our rescue, and now is helping out in the fight to cure canine cancer. 

Come on out and dress up your hound - maybe a running outfit? How about an "Official Taste Tester" outfit ???!!! Whatever you decide, the bassets will always be a crowd pleaser!  Help us spread the news about basset rescue while having a fun time with the hounds!
