Dog food firm Forthglade has given a makeover to its Turkey Dinner for Dogs product to support the charity Veterans With Dogs.
The limited-edition pack will raise awareness of the charity’s work in training and providing assistance dogs to veterans suffering from mental health conditions such as PTSD. Forthglade has also contributed £15,000 to the care and training of two assistance dogs, which includes a years’ worth of food and care for the pups while they are trained into companions for veterans in need.
Forthglade chief executive David Cox said: “We hope the Veterans With Dogs limited-edition meal helps raise awareness of this important charity.
“Mental health and wellbeing can be so positively impacted by the companionship of a dog, and these hero dogs can truly transform a veteran’s life. Alongside the limited-edition meal for dogs, we’re really proud to be sponsoring two future hero pups throughout their Veterans With Dogs training programme.”
Craig MacLellan, founder of Veterans With Dogs, added: “We’re really excited that Forthglade has created this special pack for us to help support the charity, it means a great deal to us.
“Having their continued support helps us fund the training and placement of assistance dogs for veterans, and raise awareness of the significant impact that assistance dogs have on improving the lives of veterans suffering from mental health conditions, following their time in the Armed Forces.”
The Veterans With Dogs limited edition meal is supplied in 395g trays, RRP £1.59.
