Here at Yark, nothing inspires us more than dog lovers doing good. When we came across the story of Chester's Final Journey, we felt compelled to take action. Nicole Elliott was browsing a Georgia animal shelter's Facebook page when she discovered Chester, a scruffy gray dog who was 14 years old and dying of cancer. Not only did Elliot adopt Chester, but she's created a bucket list of activities to spoil Chester during his final days. "I only hope someone would do the same for me if I was terminally ill," said Elliott.
We are happy to announce that 20% all Yark collar & leash sales for the month of July will be donated to the Animal Ark Rescue Fund to help other senior dogs have a loving final journey like Chester.
UPDATE: Shortly after posting this blog entry, it was announced that Chester passed away peacefully. We are honored to support the memory of Chester and to help other senior dogs like him.
