Little did he realize what started as a way to earn extra money for his family would become a sustainable project that gives back and saves the planet.

He’s not stopping at dog beds, as now Silva is converting tires to flowerpots and recycling containers as well as helping animals in need. Way to go, Amarildo and we raise our sparkling water bowls to you!
