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 !!!

The Anti-Lick Strip is a deterrent used to combat obsessive licking, biting and chewing behaviors that arise from the skin allergies and can eventually lead to a more serious hot spot.

Pet owners and veterinarians have long-sought a more effective solution for animals with obsessive licking and biting habits and as an alternative to the e-collar for post-surgical bandaged areas, casts and other work needing protection.
Now, for the first time, they have one. Nurtured Pets, a company dedicated to promoting health and wellness for pets, has introduced Anti-Lick Strip Prevent ™ to the retail industry, the first product of its type that effectively deters pets from licking and biting granulomas and hot spots – as an alternative to using an E-collar. The Anti-Lick Strip Pro, available exclusively to veterinarians, is designed to be placed over surgical bandages as an alternative to using the E-collar.
The patent-pending Anti-Lick Strip is a unique bandage strip with an adhesive backing on one side and all-natural active ingredients on the other. When applied over a problematic site, such as a granuloma, the outfacing all-natural active ingredients are delivered through the animal’s nasal passages and to the tongue when licked, poked or bitten. The active ingredients are 100 percent safe for the animal, despite its deterrent affect on the animal. The strips are particularly effective on the animal’s limbs. “Anti-Lick Strip Prevent is the first product of its kind to effectively deter pets from licking and biting surgical wounds, granulomas and hot spots – in place of using an E-collar,” said Cindy Miller, marketing director for Nurtured Pets.
“Anti-Lick Strip Prevent has been clinically proven to immediately and effectively correct obsessive licking and biting behavior. This product gives pet owners the first truly effective solution for addressing this behavior since the introduction of the E-collar. Based on initial feedback, we’re quite confident it will be highly successful,” she added.The preventive nature of the product helps to promote healing and lessens the chance of infection, inflammation or re-opened wounds. In clinical tests, pets avoided the Anti-Lick Strip nearly 95 percent of the time, proving the effectiveness of these unique bandage strips.
Nurtured Pets will also launch Anti-Lick Strip Pro for veterinary clinics this fall. Anti-Lick Strip Pro contains the same powerful, all-natural ingredient deterrents but with a more aggressive medical-grade adhesive for use over vet wrap or gauze. It is available exclusively for vets on 96” rolls that fit conveniently under clinical tables.
Nurtured Pets is being manufactured by Lauren Composites. Lauren Composites is a division of Lauren International, a multi-faceted U.S.-based manufacturer with 40 years of product innovation experience and customers throughout the world. The company is headquartered in New Philadelphia, Ohio.

On November 19th, Midvale fifth graders were treated to a pair of educational presentations. The split Math and Science sessions consisted of presenters Dr. Scott Keating as well as Mr. Derek Cummings and Mr. Tony Piconke from the Marketing Department of Lauren Manufacturing. Dr. Keating began his presentation with a video about "Vinny Vision" where the students had to solve a mystery using optical illusion clues. The students examined each other's eyes with special medical lights, and the session was topped off with the grand finale of Dr. Keating dissecting cow eyes. He showed the students where the optic nerve and the muscles were cut. Dr. Keating then proceeded to use his scalpel to cut into the eyeball showing the different parts including the lens and the goo that is secreted when squeezed. Each student received an eyeball tattoo to remember this "eye opening" experience.
Cummings and Piconke began their presentation by telling the students about the history of Lauren Manufacturing and the products the company manufactures. They stressed the importance of school and how academics have helped them with their careers as they market Lauren's new product called the Anti-Lick Strip. They presented a Power Point presentation explaining how the strip came about and how it works by protecting the dog from licking, biting or chewing a specific area. Piconke explained how the scientific method was applied in the making of this product, and the students participated in helping Cummings calculate some mathematical statistics in order to find out how many strips could be produced per hour. The students also watched a video showing how a dog reacted to the anti-lick strips and how many strips it took before he quit biting them off. The session was especially exciting when Clark, a real dog that came with the gentlemen, demonstrated the anti-lick strips for the students. The students were rewarded for good behavior with stress reliever biscuits.
Fifth Grade Science Teacher Tammie Kandray and Math Teacher Rachel Cummings coordinated these hands-on learning experiences.
