Your Family (and Family Pet) Can Be Part of the Purina Farms 'Pawsitive Connections' Video Series

For most of us, dogs and cats are more than our pets. They’re our family members, our playmates, and if they’re canine, our running buddies. They keep a watchful eye over our kids and cheer us up even when our human companions can’t. So, it only seems appropriate that we sing our pets’ praises from the rooftops – or at least from a video screen. Now you have the chance to publicly honor your favorite friend by submitting your family’s pet story to Purina Farms’ Pawsitive Connections: Stories of Commitment, Triumph and Unconditional Love, a video series to be featured in the indoor theater at this beloved family destination throughout the 2018 season.
