Purina Parent Club Partnership Program Supports Canine Health Research Funded Through the AKC Canine Health Foundation

The AKC Canine Health Foundation (CHF), a nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing the health of all dogs and their owners, announces that Purina has donated $111,910 in support of CHF-funded canine health research thanks to its Purina Parent Club Partnership (PPCP) Program.

Since it began in 2002, the PPCP Program has provided more than $9 million for canine health research, breed rescue, and educational efforts to positively impact the general health and well-being of dogs.

The Program enables Purina® Pro Club® members to earn Purina Points by purchasing qualifying Purina pet foods and submitting proofs of purchase. An annual donation from Purina is shared between Purina Pro Club members’ designated parent breed club and that breed club’s Donor Advised Fund at the AKC Canine Health Foundation.

“We are proud to continue supporting the PPCP Program so that we can help provide a healthy future for all dogs,” says Scott Smith, Managing Director at Purina and CHF Board Member. “The program’s success is a testament to the shared goals and collaborative efforts with CHF through PPCP and CHF-funded research.”

“We are deeply grateful for Purina’s generous support through its Pro Club,” says Dr. Stephanie Montgomery, CHF Chief Executive Officer. “This program uniquely empowers a community of exclusive dog breeders and competitors to be a vital part of CHF’s mission. By contributing to advancing the science of canine health, Purina’s Parent Club Partnership Program has proven impactful in building a legacy of excellence for our beloved dogs.”

Additional collaborations between these two organizations include Purina’s sponsorship of CHF’s biennial National Parent Club Canine Health Conference and the sale of engraved bricks at the Event Center at Purina Farms in Gray Summit, MO (akcchf.org/brick). These programs embody Purina’s motto, “Your Pet, Our Passion,”© and support CHF’s work to help all dogs live longer, healthier lives.
