The Generous Food Sponsors
JANUARY, 2012: The Pet Postcard Project is having its first TOY RAISER for homeless dogs! Shelter pups need to play too, so Planet Dog has generously pledged $10,000 of their amazing minty-scented toys to two shelters, Fresno Bully Rescue in Fresno, California, and Big Hearts for Big Dogs Rescue in Miami, Florida. Two worthy rescues on the opposite ends of the country.
In celebration of 10 years of giving through its non-profit, the Planet Dog Foundation (PDF), Planet Dog is proud to help support two worthy rescues on the opposite ends of the country. To make it happen, we need YOUR handmade, homemade pet postcards!
DUE TO TRAVELING AND UNFORSEEN CIRCUMSTANCES (DOGGIE SURGERY) THIS CAMPAIGN WILL RUN THROUGH JANUARY 15th - THERE'S STILL TIME TO GET YOUR CARDS IN! Here's The Pet Postcard Project's food raiser campaign for NOVEMBER/DECEMBER, 2011! Royal Canin has generously pledged $1500 of their quality food to Animals Rule shelter in Los Angeles! 1000 homemade pet postcards before December 31 will make it happen! Read more about the campaign here!
The Pet Postcard Project is made possible by the kindness and generosity of its pet food sponsors, who donate literally tons of kibble to animal shelters and rescues in exchange for your creative postcards.OCTOBER 2011 CAMPAIGN: The Made in the USA Treat Raiser Campaign, sponsored by Mr. Gamble's Dog Bites, and Riddick's All Natural Jerky Treats to benefit Start Over Rover, a no-kill rescue!
AUGUST/SEPTEMBER CAMPAIGN, 2011: The Freekibble.com/Halo 15,000 Meal "Cat Months" Campaign, spearheaded by Jackson Galaxy, Cat Behaviorist and star of the Animal Planet show, My Cat From Hell!
Many months, Lucky Dog Cuisine gives $1000 of their fabulous food to a different shelter through The Pet Postcard Project and all you have to do is send in your cards!
For several years, Rachel Ray Nutrish gave 500 to 1000 pounds a month of their dog food to shelters and rescues though The Pet Postcard Project, and in total gave over 100,000 lbs of dog food to shelters through postcard campaigns!

What is the Pet Postcard Project?
The Pet Postcard Project is a grassroots arts-and-crafts project aimed at raising food for shelter pets and awareness about the plight of homeless animals. "Pet Postcards" for this project are homemade and handmade postcards featuring your own pets that you make and then snail mail into The Pet Postcard Project. Each card you send earns food for shelter dogs and cats. So far, this project has has received many thousands of funny, weird, sad, cute, and profound cards, all filled with love for a beloved pet.
Please include a PHOTO of the animal on each card, or else we won't know who's "talking!" The words are not just captions, they are creative confessions, wishes, advice, excuses, and "you know you love your dog/cat when" ideas. Here's how to turn postcards into pet food for shelter animals!
This site does NOT make money on this project. It's all to raise food and awareness for shelter animals.

About The Pet Postcard Project's Card Categories

DOGVICE = Dog advice FROM dogs to other dogs and their humans and CATVICE = Cat advice FROM cats to other cats and their humans.
TRUE DOG CONFESSIONS and TRUE CAT CONFESSIONS = Secret Confessions from EITHER pet or guardian. REMEMBER, A CONFESSION IS A SECRET, NOT JUST A PREFERENCE.
DOG WISHES and CAT WISHES = Secret wishes and desires FROM THE DOG OR CAT.
YOU KNOW YOU LOVE YOUR DOG/CAT WHEN . . . = Wacky things we do for our dogs or cats that illustrate how much we care.
