To promote his New Brand of GENTLE GIANTS WORLD CLASS CANINE CUISINE Dog Food, Burt Ward will be appearing LIVE this weekend at the Wal-Mart Super Center in Baldwin Park, CA! He'll be there both days, Saturday, January 28th & Sunday, the 29th (2012). The schedule is 9:00 am till 4:00 pm, each day! With every purchase of a Bag of GENTLE GIANT Dog Food you'll also get a FREE Autographed Photo of "Robin, the Boy Wonder"! Plus, they will have a 1966 Batmobile Car on-site where you can get your picture taken in the Driver's Seat. YES, you can actually SIT INSIDE THE BATMOBILE, ha! So, bring the Kids and your camera!!
Fans of the 1966 BATMAN TV Show will totally recognize this guy, it's Burt Ward! Of course he was the actor who played Robin, The Boy Wonder. Well, he's now in the Dog Food business. I've mentioned his charity organization "Gentle Giants" before here at the Bat-Blog. It's sort of an animal rescue for huge dogs that he & his wife have been running for a long time. But now they have created "Gentle Giants Canine Cuisine". Here's the TV commercial.
Somebody wrote me the other day asking what is Burt Ward doing now? They said they hear about Adam West a lot because he's on Family Guy & makes commercials from time to time. We all know Burt Ward as the actor who played Robin, The Boy Wonder, on TV's classic 1966 Batman Series. Today he stays quite busy with a charity he created called GENTLE GIANTS. Basically it's a pet rescue and adoption center for HUGE dogs. It's actually run by him & his wife. They find good homes for large-breed dogs. Burt also makes appearances at comic book conventions / car shows every now & then. But their charity work is a labor of love. If you're interesting in adopting a new pet then here's a link:
