Hello One for Paws friends! We have now chosen our logo design (we'll announce the winner next week), but could use your help once again in letting us know which tagline you like best:

- One for Paws: Dog Collars for Change

- One for Paws: One pack. One purpose.

- One for Paws: Collars Unleashing Hope.
(or Collars Unleashing _______ ) YOU FILL IN THE BLANK!

As a reminder: One for Paws is a socially conscious company that will follow the one for one model: for each collar/dog product you buy, we will donate a like item (collar for collar, dog food for a dog bowl, a kennel for a dog bed, etc.) to a selected dog rescue. Our mission is to join in the fight to end the homeless animal problem by promoting spay/neuter programs and rescues and shelters committed to responsible adoptions.

This is why we must do this work. So that those 30,000 in Colorado will not face death. You can make a difference! Adopt your next pet. Get them spayed/neutered. And spread the message!
