Celebrating Our Plastic Free July Winner: Arianna and Her Dogs

We’re thrilled to announce the winner of our Plastic Free July initiative: Arianna and her beloved companions, Millie and Reggie!

Simple Solutions, Big Impact
Arianna’s winning entry showcased two brilliant plastic-free initiatives:
Homemade Yogurt Treats: Instead of buying packaged pet treats, Arianna creates nutritious snacks using plain yogurt and reusable silicone moulds, eliminating plastic packaging while ensuring healthier treats for Millie and Reggie.
Banana Rescue Bites: She transforms overripe bananas into frozen treats using reusable moulds, tackling both food waste and plastic packaging in one creative solution.

Environmental Impact
While these changes might seem small, they create significant environmental benefits. The global pet treat market generates millions of tons of plastic packaging waste annually. Every avoided plastic wrapper means less plastic entering our waste streams and potentially our oceans.

Supporting Take 3 for the Sea
Arianna’s commitment aligns perfectly with the Take 3 for the Sea initiative that AVID and Carolina proudly supports. This movement encourages everyone to remove three pieces of rubbish when leaving beaches or waterways.

The connection is clear: every piece of plastic we prevent from being created is one less item that could end up in our oceans. Marine animals often mistake plastic debris for food, so choosing reusable alternatives helps protect marine life and keep our waters clean.

Join the Movement
Arianna’s success proves that sustainable pet ownership doesn’t require major changes or expensive purchases. Her approach is cost-effective, healthier for pets, and rewarding for owners.

Congratulations to Arianna for showing us that loving our pets and loving our planet go hand in hand!
