Purina Pro Plan, a leader in pet nutrition, has joined forces with World Champion swimmer Michael Phelps and a team of sports professionals to launch Fueled By, a compelling docuseries highlighting the commitment of athletes to their respective sports and underscoring the vital role nutrition plays in driving their active lifestyles with their dogs.
Fueled By offers an inside look into the lives of Phelps and gymnast Olivia Dunne, track star Lolo Jones and sportscaster Erin Andrews and their dogs. The series highlights the essential role each pro's devoted dog plays in their daily routines and active lifestyles and illustrates how the optimal nutrition provided by Pro Plan keeps dogs at their peak performance, just like their athlete owners.
"There are a lot of dog foods out there, but Pro Plan Sport is specifically formulated for active dogs like my Great Dane Onyx," said Michael Phelps. "As an athlete, I know the role nutrition plays in performance ... things like the right protein-to-fat ratios to build lean muscles, and amino acids to help with recovery. That's what I get when I feed Onyx Pro Plan Sport."
For every view of the Fueled By docuseries on proplansport.com from now through Oct. 31, 2024, Pro Plan will donate $1 (up to $150,000) to Athletes for Animals, a nonprofit organization dedicated to protecting homeless pets.
