Nurtured Pets™ Participates in Chicago’s first annual Dog Day on the Green
New Philadelphia, Ohio – (July 27, 2009) An abundance of tails will be wagging to beat the band at the inaugural launch of Chicago’s Dog Day on the Green. This eco-friendly, fun family festival for dog owners and dog lovers of all ages will take place near Soldier Field at
1410 S. Museum Campus Drive on Sunday, August 2, 2009.
A full day of exciting activities is scheduled for both owners and pets, from the Fido Fashion Show to the Doggy Olympics to the “Hoop and Hurdles” agility test. But just in case a scrape, minor bruise or bee sting should happen to a participating pet, there will also be plenty of Anti-Lick Strip Prevent™ pet bandages on hand, courtesy of Nurtured Pets.
These unique, patent-pending pet bandages are clinically proven to discourage pets from obsessive licking, biting and chewing – behaviors that can lead to more serious conditions such as hot spots or lick granulomas. They’re also a great alternative to the E-collar for post-surgical sites.
On the outside, each bandage is constructed with all-natural, active outfacing ingredients, such as cayenne pepper, clove oil and oregano, that deter pets from bothering problem spots so they have a chance to heal. A peel-and-stick, medical-grade adhesive on the opposite side can be applied directly to hair or skin.
Anti-Lick Strip Prevent pet bandages can be used as a protective covering to help promote healing, or applied at the first sign of biting or licking. So a product like this belongs in every pet parent’s first aid kit. And pet parents will be glad to know that Anti-Lick Strip Prevent products are veterinarian-approved and manufactured in the United States.
According to Cindy Miller, Marketing Director at Nurtured Pets, “we’re thrilled to be charter exhibitors at this festive family event.” To check out these revolutionary bandages in person, be sure to visit the Nurtured Pets booth during Dog Day on the Green. Anti-Lick Strip samples will handed out in small, medium and large sizes. For more information or to find a retailer near you, visit www.nurturedpets.com.
The Anti-Lick Strip is composed of all-natural ingredients, except for the adhesive, which is of human medical grade. The strip serves many purposes, but mainly its used to cover up wounds, hot spots, lick granulomas and other infected areas, thereby deterring your four-legged family members from licking and chewing these areas. Yuck !!!
Clearly not a glamorous product, but something invaluable to have around when you need it. How many of us have suffered watching our pet chewing or scratching obsessively at a spot until its raw. Well, the Anti-Lick Strip is here to rescue us from this blight.
Recently Happa (you'll be hearing a lot from him this week), our resident Italian Greyhound product tester, came back from the dog park with a small boo-boo on his leg. We put some antiseptic on it and left it to heal, but, boy, he just wouldn't leave it alone. When we arrived the next morning at PetMD HQ, we cleaned the affected area, as per the package directions, put an Anti-Lick Strip on it and, like magic, he completely ignored the area. In a couple of days the strip fell off and the boo-boo was healed.
The Anti-Lick Strips come in three sizes, and can actually be used for training purposes (see manufacturers suggestions on the package).
Haute !!! Maybe not ... but terrific to have on hand !!!
