Give a Pawsitive Present With Operation ResCUTE

I received the product below to review in exchange for sharing my honest opinion.

Did you know that 2.7 million healthy pets remain in shelters each year with only 30% of pets in homes coming from those shelters and rescue organizations? Well a NYC marketing powerhouse, Laurie Brown-Nagin, started a non-profit to inspire the next generation to make a difference. After she spotted an Animal Control Office carrying a puppy to a pro-bono veterinarian, she fell in love with Jingles, the shelter pooch who desperately needed a warm, loving home.

Operation ResCUTE packages an inspiring boxed set that features a book and plush to foster the development of empathic and proactive young citizens. Laurie started Operation ResCUTE to shift conversations from let’s buy a dog to let’s rescue/adopt one.

Operation ResCUTE Book & Plush Set • $29.99 • Ages 3+

Jingles the dog, the first in the Operation ResCUTE series, shows youngsters the value of opening their hearts and helping someone/something less fortunate. Each boxed set includes an illustrated book and huggable plush pup. Animal shelters give it two paws up!

During the holiday season, parents and grandparents can give a pawsitive present with 100% of profits going directly toward helping shelter dogs get adopted. The profits will be used by shelters for marketing/outreach efforts for placement of dogs with families. Her company has already donated to 11 shelters.

I love that Operation ResCUTE not only brings attention to shelter dogs but also gives profits to help out shelters themselves. For kids who cannot have a dog due to allergies or family circumstances, Operation ResCUTE still allows them to participate in compassion for animals. Jingles is just the first puppy set but more sets are coming.

In the set you get the adorable Jingles plush, a book and a sticker. The book is paperback but tells a great story. This would make a great gift for any child or even adult animal lover!
