Pet-product company in SLO donates $5K
 Cloud Star, a local producer of natural pet products, recently donated $5,000 to the Surfrider Foundation. The funds will be used by the San Luis Bay chapter for educational purposes and water quality testing. "We realize the importance of protecting our beaches," said Brennan Johnson, cofounder of Cloud Star. The San Luis Obispo company also joined One Percent for the Planet, an organization that vows to give 1 percent of sales to an environmental group each year.
Cloud Star began in 1999 with the debut of its Buddy Biscuits. The company has grown its line to include an array of all-natural animal products. Click here to visit the Cloud Star website.
