Here are just a few of our earth-friendly faves:

• West Paw Design — With their fantastic toys, beds, apparel and more, West Paw Design has made a commitment to “growing green” by reusing and recycling materials, minimizing waste, and seeking out eco-friendly components for all their products. Their packaging is made from recycled materials, and they even recycled their building during a recent expansion. Now that’s commitment!
• Big Shrimpy — Not only do they make some of the toughest, comfiest pet beds around, they are also experts on the three R’s — Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. In fact, since 2002, Big Shrimpy has recycled over 328,000 pounds of clean polyester fiber waste from North American manufacturers.
• Bionic — With their durable, Bionic Rubber® toys designed for aggressive “bionic play,” you can easily reduce the number of flimsy toys your dog destroys in a year (or a day!). The fact that their products are recyclable and eco-friendly materials is a big bonus.
• Planet Dog — “Think Locally. Act Doggedly,” is their slogan, and Planet Dog “romps the romp” by not only offering eco-friendly dog toys and hemp collars, but also donating 2% of their profits to an Eco-friendly cause.
• World’s Best Cat Litter — Pet, people and planet friendly, World’s Best Cat Litter uses a patented, advanced technological process and formula to utilize natural, renewable ingredients (whole-kernel corn and plant derivatives) to deliver outstanding performance in odor and clumping control.
• Biodegradable Poop Bags — Made from a combination of corn and other renewable products, these biodegradable poop bags the ASTM D6400 specification for biodegradability and compostability. They are shelf stable and have no chemical additives. The greenest way you can dispose of your dog’s waste, hands down.
