Every day is Earth Day at Glad Dogs Nation! 🌎🐾
As you know, we upcycle kid stuffed animals into safe, durable dog and cat toys—keeping them out of landfills a little longer and into the paws of happy pets and animals waiting to find their forever homes.
Small choices. Big impact.

A great story about a community rallying to find a lost dog!
When a hiker fell from a 180-foot waterfall in wild New Zealand bush, rescuers were forced to evacuate the badly hurt woman without her dog, which couldn't be found.
After strangers raised thousands of dollars for a search, border collie Molly was flown to safety by a helicopter pilot who was determined to reunite pet and owner.

How are your pups handling being inside more than normal? Treat dispensing toys are a great option to keep them mentally stimulated in a positive way. We just got a few new options from GURU Dog Toys. This is one of them.
Special thanks to Julie Kramer Lichtenstein for shooting the video of her dogs enjoying the toy. :-)

Gladys, the trusty Glad Dogs van, went on a road trip yesterday to pick up stuffed animal donations in Newtown, PA and Pennington and Clinton, NJ.
Sending special thanks to those who collected everything gathered: Newtown Veterinary Hospital, LLC, Pennington Veterinary Care Center, and CB Pet Market. We are all so grateful for your support. We couldn't do what we do without you!
Let the upcycling begin!

We've done it again! Thanks to your support, we have reached more animal shelters, rescue groups, and animal advocates across the nation than we did last year.
This year, we shipped 278 packages of toys, supplies, and essentials to non-profit organizations that requested our help -- allowing us to turn over 6000 SAD dogs and cats into GLAD dogs and cats!
With 162 requests currently on our wait list (which grows daily), we hope to do even more in 2026. If now is a good time for you, know that 100% of your donation will help with the high cost of shipping.
Thanks for being a supporter of Glad Dogs Nation and Glad Dogs Foundation!
