Seems like The Hartz Mountain Corp., a pet products manufacterer is looking for shelters to donate to. They want the publics opinion on which shelter these donations should go to, in total they aimed to give away $3 million to shelters and they've given away 2 mil. According to shelters because of the loss of homes due to forclosures many families had to leave their pets at the shelters and at the same time donations fell 30 %.
