Currently only 27 percent of household pets nationwide* – and 40 percent locally – come from shelters**, due mostly to common misperceptions about the behavior, health and age of shelter pets. To address this issue, Nestlé Purina and local pet shelters have launched the “Consider A Shelter Pet” campaign.

NEW YORK, NY – September 21, 2016 – The inaugural Beverly Hills Dog Show Presented by Purina – produced by NBC Sports Group – will air on USA Network at 8/7c on Easter Sunday, April 16, 2017.

Nestlé Purina granted a $30,000 donation to the Friends of the Animal Shelter (FOTAS) of St. Joseph, Inc., to fund an immediate renovation, which will take place September 10-18, and an additional $70,000 to help fund future expansion.

TerraVia, Inc., a pioneer in algae based food nutrition and specialty ingredients, and Nestlé Purina have announced entering into a joint development agreement targeting the companion animal market.
