The kennels there are mostly sponsored by companies to help keep things running, and most of those companies are pet-related. Dog food, cat grooming, that sort of thing.
Except this one, which is sponsored by video game developer Naughty Dog, the team responsible for the Uncharted and Jak & Daxter series.
Know what I like most about this? This is the first I've heard of it. There wasn't a press release issued with pictures of it being built, or a Spike TV segment showing some guy dressed up as Nathan Drake cuddling lost dogs. It's just...something that's been done. Which is the way this kind of business should be done.
