Collaboration Corner: Tito’s Handmade Vodka, the Vodka for Dog People, Helps Hundreds of Pets

By Sheri Madsen, Director of PR and Partnerships –

We’re so grateful for Tito’s Handmade Vodka, the Vodka for Dog People, and their recent generous $5,000 sponsorship of spay/neuter vouchers at the free wellness and pet supply clinic with our friends at PAWS of Northeast Louisiana. Because of their sponsorship, 162 family pets received coveted spay/neuter vouchers!

According to the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA), spaying and neutering pets has health and behavioral benefits for both the pet and other animals in the household, including:

Eliminated risk of pyometra, a potentially fatal infection of the uterus
Decreased risk of uterine, mammary, ovarian, and testicular cancer
Eliminated risk of pregnancy, which helps control overpopulation
Decreased spraying and urine-marking behavior
Reduction of behaviors like escaping, yowling, mounting, and aggression
Increased average lifespan

Earlier this summer, we announced that spay and neuter services could be offered to RedRover Relief Urgent Care grantees as a special add-on, thanks to their generous $10,000 sponsorship. Approximately 40% of Urgent Care grantees’ pets have not been spayed or neutered because the costs are often out of reach.

RedRover President and CEO, Katie Campbell, said, “We are so incredibly grateful for Tito’s Handmade Vodka’s sponsorship, and their common belief in supporting pets and preserving the human-animal bond. Because of them, we can help hundreds more pets live happy and healthy lives with those who love them.”
