Celebrating 50 Years of KONG: Pet Supplies Plus Hosts Nationwide Events and Giveaways

Celebrating 50 Years of KONG at Pet Supplies Plus

Pet Supplies Plus is marking a significant milestone as KONG® celebrates its 50th birthday this August. The retailer is rolling out a month of festivities designed to honor this beloved brand while emphasizing the importance of play and enrichment for pets.

A Month-Long Celebration

The celebration spans the entire month of August, featuring exciting giveaways, community initiatives, in-store events, and exclusive promotions aimed specifically at pet parents. The highlight of the celebration is a social media giveaway that launched on August 11, allowing pet owners to win a $100 Pet Supplies Plus gift card and a KONG prize bundle.

In a generous gesture, for every share of the giveaway announcement on Instagram, KONG will donate a toy to local animal shelters. This donation initiative will support the Foothills Animal Shelter in Golden, Colorado, with a cap of 200 toys, embodying the spirit of giving back to the community.

In-Store Events

On August 15, participating Pet Supplies Plus locations will host in-store celebrations featuring a variety of engaging activities. Visitors can enjoy free samples, visit a treat bar, and watch demonstrations showcasing innovative ways to fill a KONG Classic toy, enhancing its functionality and appeal for pets. These events will also encourage donations to local rescue organizations, reinforcing the partnership between Pet Supplies Plus and animal welfare efforts.

Exclusive Discounts

For those who wish to stock up on KONG products, from August 9 to 22, customers can enjoy a special offer where buying one select KONG item results in a 50% discount off another. This initiative not only celebrates the brand's anniversary but also aims to enrich the lives of pets across neighborhoods by making premium products more affordable.

The Legacy of KONG

Since its inception in 1976, KONG has developed a reputation for providing safe, durable, and engaging toys that encourage positive play behaviors.
