Be Happy with Purina (and win a custom tee)!

Sometimes all it takes is seeing that little butt wiggle with excitement and suddenly everyone in the room is happy too! There’s just something about pets that brings a smile to our faces, and it’s always the little things they do that seem to bring the greatest laughs! Let’s join the fun and be happy with them!

Be Happy is a new pet food brand by Nestlé Purina PetCare Company that celebrates happiness as a way of seeing the world. We think that’s awesome! “We looked at the way our pets see the world and were inspired by how they just seem to instinctively know the secrets to being happy,” said Aaron Williams, Be Happy brand manager. We’re celebrating our pets as our happiness heroes. We’ve incorporated this philosophy into everything we do, and are encouraging pet owners to join our happiness movement online.”

You can join in the fun by creating your own happy photos via the Be Happy mobile photo app available in the iTunes and Google Play stores. The app enables people to customize photos with visual elements like dog ears, hearts, borders, the Be Happy characters and thought bubbles for happy messages. Of you can visit Purina Pet Fun to create images online. You can even share your “happiness art” on the Be Happy Pinterest board found here: Pinterest.com/BeHappybyPurina.
