Pet Supplies Plus Raises Big Bucks for Best Friends—One Toy at a Time

In a heartwarming display of community support, Pet Supplies Plus, the grand maestro of pet retail, has orchestrated yet another year of giving. Through the sales of select plush toys, the franchise has successfully donated a whopping $21,198.49 to the Best Friends Animal Society in 2024. This initiative marks the fifth consecutive year of collaboration between the largest pet retail franchise in the nation and the tireless advocates at Best Friends, both united with a noble pursuit: making every shelter across the United States a no-kill haven.

As reported, nearly two-thirds of U.S. shelters have embraced the no-kill philosophy as of April 2025, a shift that speaks volumes about the changing tide in animal welfare. The funds have been generated from a generous 10% of profits from festive plush toys—bunnies, dogs, horses, and pigs—found exclusively at Pet Supplies Plus. It’s a win-win for every animal lover: buy a toy, help a furry friend find a forever home.

Chris Rowland, the visionary CEO of Pet Supplies Plus, reflected on this initiative, stating, “With so many cats and dogs in need of loving families, our neighbors stepped up in a huge way to support Best Friends Animal Society.” Such earnest sentiment highlights how we can all play a part in saving the lives of homeless pets, one toy purchase at a time.
