The following is a guest post from Feline Fido, a fun site with great collars, leashes, and key fobs, that also is promoting awareness of great causes!

Aimee handed me this wonderful opportunity to tell you a little about my store, FelineFido.com. We offer many designer pet collars, for everyday wear, holidays and a collection of awareness pet collars, leashes and key fobs for the ‘fashionably aware pet’. We are most proud of the way we have managed to combine our love of pet fashions with a way to promote awareness for special causes such as breast cancer, spay & neuter and autism. For each of these causes we offer collars and leashes that send a message and we also donate 15% of the proceeds from the sale of these items to their respective causes.

Any dog owner will tell you that watching a beloved pooch in pain is heartbreaking. Being unable to help that pup makes the situation even worse. Until recently, dogs that developed orthopedic problems were faced with limited treatment options. Many simply suffered, or worse, had to be euthanized. However, times have changed. Thanks to the use of fat derived adult stem and regenerative cells and cutting edge science, injured dogs and their owners are finding new hope.
