Nationwide – October 7, 2019 /MarketersMedia/

The Guide Dog Foundation and America’s VetDogs is pleased to announce Pet Qwerks as preferred supplier of toys and chews.

The goal of this partnership is to further the noble mission of both organizations by providing rewards and comfort for the dogs. The dog’s that are a part of these programs are highly intelligent and wired to perform their tasks flawlessly. They require and deserve rewards and entertainment that help to relieve stress and help them relax after a day of working.

The Guide Dog Foundation (guidedog.org) and its sister organization, America’s VetDogs (vetdogs.org), were created to provide enhanced mobility and renewed independence to people who are blind or have low vision, veterans, active-duty service members, and first responders with disabilities, with the goal of allowing each recipient to once again live with pride and self-reliance.

“We’re thrilled to have this ongoing relationship with petqwerks“, says John Miller, President & CEO, Guide Dog Foundation and America’s VetDogs, “Thanks to their generous donation of bones, all of our dogs in our care, from puppies and moms in the nursery to working assistance dogs, have a reliable and safe bone to relieve stress and relax after a day of work.”

September is National Service Dog Month. Every assistance dog has been individually trained to perform specific tasks for their owners, all of whom have disabilities. The disabilities vary significantly, as do the tasks the dogs take on. For example, guide dogs learn how to lead a person in a straight line, find and follow a clear path, maneuver around obstacles (both on the ground and overhead), and stop at changes in elevation, such as curbs and stairs. Service dogs can be trained to provide balance, retrieve dropped items, interrupt nightmares, open and close doors, turn on and off lights, carry a backpack, and much more.

About Pet Qwerks:

Pet Qwerks began with a single toy, the Babble Ball. That was the company’s first product and it remains their flagship today.

Their focus has always been on innovation and enriching the lives of pets. While the heart of Pet Qwerks remains in the interactive category, they have grown to be a leading innovator in the durable dog chew category. They proudly manufacture their chews in the USA and are renown as the finest chews available. For this reason, they are honored to be named the official supplier to these wonderful foundations.

More than anything, Pet Qwerks is an employee-owned and operated company that thrives on happy & satisfied customers. They take great personal pride in their brand. From the core of the company, they value the success that comes from satisfied customers and happy, healthy pets.
