Agway And Tall Tails Team Up
----- Agway of Cape Cod, in collaboration with Tall Tails pet brand, announced the donation of 82 blankets to the Animal Rescue League of Boston Brewster branch. During the months of November and December, for every purchase of a Tall Tails blanket at Agway’s stores in Chatham, Orleans and Dennis, a matching blanket was pledged to the ARL. Whitney Tropeano, ARL’s development officer, said the donation came at a perfect time because the center has been receiving puppy transports from the South every two weeks. The generosity of Agway’s loyal customers played a pivotal role in making the donation possible, said Agway marketing director Andrea Baerenwald. Pictured are Matt McCollow of Agway and Tropeano.
