Planet Dog and Stonyfield Farm join to reward dogs and their owners

Planet Dog, the socially responsible pet industry leader, has become a partner in the popular customer loyalty program established by Stonyfield Farm, the world's leading organic yogurt company. The myStonyfield Farm Rewards Program offers consumers a chance to earn earth-friendly rewards they can feel good about and that let them give back.

"From free yogurt to carbon offsets, the rewards possible through the myStonyfield Rewards Program show this isn't your typical loyalty program," says Stonyfield President and CE-Yo Gary Hirshberg.

Canine loving yogurt eaters can redeem points and reward their 'best friend' with Planet Dog's award-winning and eco-friendly Orbee-TuffĂ’ Ball. Made from their Orbee-Tuff material, Planet Dog's flagship product and has been rated Top Product of the Year by numerous magazines and called the "world's best dog ball" by industry experts.

"Stonyfield Farm's social mission was something that inspired us when we founded our company so we are thrilled to be a part of this program," says Stephanie Volo, Planet Dog's President. "As Gary Hirshberg once said "values equals value" and we couldn't agree more," adds Volo.

The 100% recyclable Orbee-Tuff compound was engineered specifically to make the best dog toys on the planet and it took Planet Dog over a year to make it into the most durable, recyclable, pliable, buoyant and bouncy material on the market.

Orbee-Tuff toys rinse clean and are perfect for playing, training and exercise. The non-toxic toys are made in the USA and Planet Dog guarantees them 100%.

Like all of Planet Dog's products, the Orbee-Tuff Ball is socially responsible too. 2% of every Planet Dog purchase is donated to the Planet Dog Foundation (PDF), Planet Dog's non-profit. PDF provides cash grants throughout the country that train, place and support dogs who help people in need. Since 2006, PDF has donated more than a half a million dollars in cash and in-kind donations to exemplary canine service programs nationwide.
