You might not know his name, but chances are you have seen his 2016 eye opening film Pet Fooled. Thanks to the determination and grit of producer Kohl Harrington, Pet Fooled changed the way potentially hundreds of thousands of pet owners fed their pets.
The film also changed Kohl. Even after the film, Kohl continued to battle pet food regulatory authorities. He filed many Freedom of Information Act requests for hidden from the public documents. He filed Citizen Petitions with FDA hoping to force the agency to enforce federal law with pet food.
And then…our pet food hero Kohl Harrington took it one step further. Kohl went to law school.
This Friday – May 16, 2025 – Kohl Harrington graduates from Louisiana State University law school! (Look out FDA!!!)
Thanks to the platform Kudoboard, please take this opportunity to sign/send a message/even post a picture of your pet to an e-card for Kohl.
Note: The time for adding signatures has closed, below is the Kudoboard we sent to Kohl.

Thank you, Susan, for being such a good friend to Kohl. He’s a special person, and we were lucky at LSU Law to have been part of his journey.
