NEPTUNE CITY, NJ. — Nylabone, a Central Garden & Pet brand, recently announced its donationof chew toys and treats valued at over $1 million, as well as monetary contributions, to animal welfare groups in 2024.

“Not only are we dedicated to providing safe ways for dogs to satisfy their natural instinct to chew, but we are also committed to helping dogs in need find happiness and enrichment through chewing,” said Glen S. Axelrod, president and chief executive officer of Nylabone Products. “As pet parents ourselves, we are proud to support the shelters and rescues that work tirelessly to help dogs find loving forever homes.”
Nylabone didn’t stop there, the brand also collaborated with several other charities including the National Breast Cancer Foundation, American Humane’s Military Working Dog Reunification Program and One Tree Planted.
