Dog Tag Art helps save rescue animals

Summer is a time when most entrepreneurs try to squeeze in a vacation and leave work back at the office, but this wasn’t the case for Jack Carrier, the owner of Dog Tag Art out of Asheville, North Carolina. For his summer vacation, he wanted to take a trip, but with a twist.

Carrier decided to take a road trip and stop at animal shelters across the country to perform random acts of kindness. At each shelter, Carrier would sponsor a hard to adopt animal, donate a batch of custom tags, and promote the shelter via Dog Tag Art’s 70,000+ Facebook fans.

By the time Carrier returns to Asheville, he will have driven over 10,000 miles, donated $10,000 in total to the shelters he’s visited, and sponsored 20 animals across the country.
