Cancun, Quintana Roo, July 3, 2023 – Loving is Caring, the responsible pet ownership campaign of The Dolphin Company, a world-class park operator, commemorated its 6th anniversary by donating more than half a ton of dog kibble to five different shelters in Cancun, with support of Cargill, a company that cares about the community.
Cargill is an agribusiness company dedicated to the nutrition of people and animals of various species. It recently held a convention in Cancun, during which more than 300 employees from different parts of the world gathered, and where Loving is Caring donated hundreds of identification tags for pets in exchange for kibble that will help contribute positively to the nutrition of dogs of all ages.
Loving is Caring and Cargill donated the food to five different shelters in the city: Fundación Dejando Huellas por Cancún A.C., Adopta un Amigo, Santuario Kuxtal A.C., Cachorrilandia and Los Perritos de Doña Mago, which together shelter more than 400 puppies and kittens that do not have a permanent home.
“We are happy and grateful to Cargill for being an important part of this sixth anniversary of our campaign Loving is Caring. Thanks to their donation, several dogs in the city will receive decent food. We will continue our efforts and make alliances with companies committed to the welfare of pets and stray dogs and cats,” said Cecilia Aguilar, Public Relations Manager of The Dolphin Company.
During six years, Loving is Caring has:
- Delivered more than 17 thousand dog tags
- Donated more than 7 tons of kibble
- Participated in more than 170 events
- Sterilized more than 500 pets
- Supported the medical intervention of more than 25 puppies and kittens
- Raise awareness about pet care among more than 6,000 followers on social media
All of the above has been possible thanks to the resources obtained through the production of dog tags in exchange for a donation starting at $30.00 MXN per tag. Those interested in getting a dog tag for their pet can request an appointment on Loving is Caring’s social media, Facebook @amarescuidar.org, or Instagram @amarescuidarmx.
The Dolphin Company, through Loving is Caring, works with the Municipality of Benito Juarez and the Department of Animal Protection and Welfare. In the last few months, they jointly carried out a sterilization campaign during which more than 100 pets were sterilized, and are being supported with the donation of identification tags for the Municipal Register. Additionally, The Dolphin Company is part of the Municipal Citizen Advisory Council, which brings together various associations that seek the welfare of dogs and cats in Cancun, being the only private company that belongs to this group, which reflects its commitment to the community.
