Stray Thoughts Summer 2020
Why We Love Pets
Jake Landreth, Gerald Auto Group
Since 2015, Subaru retailers have partnered with local
animal welfare organizations to impact over 144,000
animals in need across the country. While that number is
amazing, perhaps the best thing about this initiative is the
name. It could have been named “Subaru Helps Pets” or
“Subaru Cares for Pets.” Each of those statements describe
the goals of the initiative, but they don’t capture the real
sentiment. We don’t just help pets, and we don’t simply
care for them. We love pets. We love everything about
them. We love how excited your dog gets when you walk
in whether you’ve been gone for 8 hours, or 15 minutes.
We love how cats make you earn their affection. Simply
put, Subaru Loves Pets.
This initiative takes place on two levels, nationally and
locally. Nationally, Subaru has donated nearly $22 million
to the ASPCA, helped support over 1,500 animal welfare
related events, and impacted the rescue, transport, and
adoption of more than 50,000 animals nationwide. Every
year, during the month of October, Subaru retailers
collect new pet supplies to donate to local animal
organizations. We also donate starter kits for new petadopting
families.
Locally, and specifically at Gerald Subaru of Naperville,
the Subaru Loves Pets initiative is ever present. From
supporting organizations as wonderful as the West
Suburban Humane Society, to welcoming pets at our
dealership. We understand how important someone’s
pet is to them. We cherish that human-animal bond. We
care about these things because we experience them
first hand. We have pets ourselves, and we love them. We
love seeing dogs in our customer lounge area. It not only
eases the wait time for each customer, but brightens up
our day as well.
Pets are an integral part of our lives, and special members
of our families. For those reasons and many more, Subaru
will always continue to Love Pets.
