Celebrating International Dog Day with Northwest Naturals and Heritage Pickle-ball

Celebrating International Dog Day with Northwest Naturals and Heritage Pickle-ball

Posted by Kelly Frazier on Aug 16th 2024

As we approach International Dog Day on August 26th, we’re thrilled to announce a heartwarming collaboration between Northwest Naturals and Heritage Pickle-ball, two proud Pacific Northwest (PNW) brands deeply rooted in family values and a love for our furry friends. This partnership not only celebrates our mutual love for dogs but also honors the unique connection between pickleball and the story of a beloved dog named Pickles.

A PNW Love Story: Family, Dogs, and Pickleball

Both Northwest Naturals and Heritage Pickle-ball have grown from family-operated businesses, with strong ties to the community and the beautiful landscapes of the PNW. Northwest Naturals, known for its high-quality raw pet foods, has been a trusted name for pet owners who prioritize nutrition and wellness for their dogs. The game of pickleball itself was started through a family, with a delightful story that intertwines with the heritage of a dog named Pickles, who would chase after errant balls during games.

The Story of Pickles

The game of pickleball has a charming connection to dogs. Legend has it that the sport was named after a family dog named Pickles, who would chase after errant balls during games. This playful spirit embodies the essence of pickleball and the joy our dogs bring into our lives.
