V-dog Treats' Packaging.
That Is Our Plastic Negative Promise.
At v-dog, being vegan and sustainable is at the core of everything we do. We're always interested in learning and being better, which led us explore how to improve our packaging. We're so excited to partner with rePurpose Global as we work to improve our packaging supply chain and help our planet heal through waste removal.
How It Works
1. Measure
V-dog donates a percentage of every product purchase to fund the collection of 2375 lbs of low-value PP plastic waste from oceans and landfills every year.
2. Compensate
Low-value plastic is collected, processed, and reused by Taka Taka Solutions - a waste management service in Kenya that employs and empowers waste pickers to tackle plastic waste.
3. Reduce
V-dog will work with rePurpose Global to reduce the future use of virgin plastics in their products and build a more circular business and delivery model for their company.

The Plastic Negative Journey
Sustainable Sourcing
Since 2005, v-dog has been making vegan, sustainable products for dogs. After a trial run with compostable packaging, challenges like increased damage led to further packaging iterations. Ever since, v-dog has been exploring ways to improve their packaging materials and supply chain.

V-dog looks forward to a future in which sustainable, plastic-free packaging options are accessible and durable for all pet food industry products. By helping take their treats Plastic Negative, rePurpose Global provides a solution for the 'now' - it enables conscious brands that seek to create powerful environmental impact today.
