Plano, TX (PRWEB via PRWebDirect) April 20, 2008 -- Pet-Togethers, the national pet wellness company and manufacturer of the PetCentRx Vim & Vigor nutritional supplements, awarded Dr. Shawn Messonnier its first annual "Git Ander Award", recognizing Dr. Shawn for his commitment to charitable work in the companion pet industry and for his outstanding contributions to holistic companion pet care.
In addition to the award, Pet-Togethers provided Dr. Shawn a check for $500 for him to donate to his charity of choice, Paws for Peace (www.pawsforpeace.com) which provides holistic animal wellness programs to licensed animal shelters and rescue groups at no cost.
"Over 250 canine search and rescue dogs worked at the World Trade Center and the Pentagon after the September 11 terrorist attacks. These canine rescue heroes worked without the benefit of gas masks or protective clothing and searched in places considered too dangerous for humans. This award is a tribute to the memory of the rescue dog named Git Ander, a seven-year-old German Shepherd, and this award recognizes the every-day professionalism and commitment of an outstanding holistic veterinarian who dedicates himself to the care and treatment of our companion pets’ health and to holistic charitable works," said Michael Fantetti, CEO, Pet-Togethers (www.pettogethers.com), headquartered in Scottsdale, AZ.
