You may have heard about Margo's Bark Root Beer, http://www.margosbark.com/ the all natural cane sugar soda for humans which generates 100% of its profits for shelter dogs and rescue organizations. The root beer was invented by 8 year old Oscar Youd (cute kid) as part of his school science fair in 2008. He named it Margo's Bark after the family dog who had been rescued. Oscar and his family had so much fun, they decided to make the root beer commercially and see if they could help the cause of shelter dogs. A year later the Root Beer is available in Whole Foods Stores in SoCal, NV, AZ and HI; in Bristol Farms throughout SoCal; and also in a number of boutique markets in Los Angeles.
Getting into Whole Foods and Bristol Farms is a big deal for Margo's Bark, and the initial weeks in store are a critical period for long term success of the product. Margo's Bark has donated to several different rescues and recently donated funds to assist a cocker spaniel who needed eye surgery...the rescue community would love to see them succeed and do more of this.
If you get a chance, stop in to your local Whole Foods or Bristol Farms and buy a four pack or two. If you're not into Root Beer, pick up a t-shirt... go on online, you can even order the soda from their website!
