The Caped Crusader Fighting for Gentle Giants

Celebrating the release of Batman VS. Two Face animated film and His Gentle Giants Dog Food Debut

Up Dated From Caped Crusader to Canine Crusader, Burt Ward as Robin, the Boy Wonder from the 1966 Batman TV series, rescued the citizens of Gotham City. Now he’s also starring in a new animated Batman feature film from Warner Bros. But what many people don’t know about the Caped Crusader is that Burt has rescued more than 15,500 dogs and has created a Special Feeding and Care Program that has helped dogs live amazingly longer, healthier, happier lives.

Gotham City District Attorney Harvey Dent is mutilated in a laboratory accident. When the duplicitous Two-Face embarks on a crime spree, Batman and Robin must solve the mystery of his identity while facing off against several other foes.

"Our brand new movie from Warner Bros. is called Batman vs Two-Face, it’s an animated feature with beautiful animation full of excitement and fun," said Burt Ward. "It is for the whole family. Adam West portrays the voice of Batman, I portray the voice of Robin and the voice of Two-Face is portrayed by none other than William Shatner. So here you have the two most iconic TV shows in history; Batman and Star Trek with the actors working together."

Burt's Dog Care Tips
1. How to properly care for your dogs. You can read about that at gentlegiantsdogfood.com We have a section of our website called Gentle Giants Special Feeding and Care Program
2. Your dog needs to be spayed or neutered because cancer is still the number one killer of dogs and 85 percent of cancers originated in the dog’s reproductive organs. That early spay or natured at five and half and six months is one thing.

3. In terms of feeding we elevate our food. Why do we elevate the food? It’s because dogs bodies eventually wear out faster than human bodies and if a dog has to bend all the way down to get food and come up and chew and up and down it wears them out. When elevating the food so they only tip their heads down to eat. And we feed our dogs five or more times a day and it adds many years. So between our Gentle Giants Dog Food and all of our feeding and care techniques your dog could live 22, 25, 27 years like ours are living.

The dog food is available stores and online such as Walmart, Chewy.com, PetSmart, Amazon
