At a time when many corporations have cut back on supporting nonprofit causes, several have stepped forward or became more involved with Leader Dog over the last several years. -
One of our longest and most natural partnerships has been with Nestle Purina Pet Care. Our relationship dates back to 1942 and Purina has been instrumental in supporting our cause. In fact, we are proud to say that Leader Dogs are powered by Purina foods. Purina generously donates Pro Plan dog food so that all of the dogs in our care have a well-balanced, nutritionally sound diet. (Our dogs give the food two paws up!)

Pet Supplies “Plus” is one of the largest pet supply retailers in Michigan and throughout a large part of the country. Leader Dog has a long-standing relationship with this wonderful company and receives donations of products as well as sponsorship support. This year, Pet Supplies “Plus” and Purina partnered to support LDB through a campaign that ran through the month of February. A portion of Purina dog food sales came back to Leader Dog in the form of a $25,000 gift.

We are also proud to partner with wonderful companies such as Art Van Furniture, which provided a challenge grant encouraging other corporations to give to LDB and Wally Findlay Galleries in New York and Palm Beach that hosted gatherings to
raise awareness and funds for Leader Dog.
