| Jackson, Wyoming—January 2, 2007—Towns along the 2007 International Pedigree Stage Stop Sled Dog Race
(IPSSSDR) route will receive one year’s worth of pet food for one pet, thanks to Pedigree ® Food for Dogs
announced Race Director Frank Teasley. As title sponsor of the event, Pedigree contributes pet food to the
communities on the race route. Towns on the 2007 route—Jackson, Lander, Pinedale, Big Piney/Marbleton, Alpine,
Kemmerer/Diamondville, Evanston, Mountain View/Lyman, and Park City—distribute the food to local animal shelters
as well as use the food as prizes during the IPSSSDR festivities.
This is Pedigree Food for Dogs’ eighth year as title sponsor of the IPSSSDR. The Pedigree brand is passionate
about dogs and committed to providing them with a lifetime of health and eating enjoyment from foods that are best
suited to a dog’s true nature. This superior dog understanding insures that the Pedigree brand supports activities
and events in which the welfare of dogs always comes first. The dog-friendly nature of the IPSSSDR is one of the
prime reasons the brand has chosen to support this national competition.
