Our charitable recipient-Best Friends Animal Society

The Holidays, Hounds & Hot Buys team has selected Best Friends Animal Society as our charitable recipient this year and we are thrilled that many of the participating brands are donating to Best Friends Animal Society. Best Friends is the only national nonprofit animal welfare organization focused exclusively on ending the killing of dogs and cats in America’s shelters. An authority and leader in the no-kill movement for more than 30 years, they run the nation’s largest no-kill sanctuary for companion animals, regional centers in Los Angeles, Salt Lake City, and New York, as well as life-saving programs in partnership with rescue groups and shelters across the country. If you are in a position to do so, please consider a donation to Best Friends as part of your holiday giving
