Accidents Happen carpet protection CORE Reward+ treats

Lancashire-based pet accessory start-up company Accidents Happen launched a new carpet protector at PATS Telford which caught the interest of visitors to their stand including one of the major pet wholesale companies.

The product was the inspiration of John Blezard who is a project manager in the banking industry and painting contractor Chris Clayton. John had just bought his fi rst home and had spent a fortune on new furniture and carpets for it. At the same time, he had bought an energetic Cocker Spaniel puppy called Johnson. Despite all efforts to train him with puppy pads, Johnson often ignored them leaving lots of wet patches and little presents hidden for John to fi nd. Johnson is immortalised as the cartoon dog in the company logo.

With Johnson consistently weeing on the new carpet, John decided to use a carpet protection fi lm from a major DIY brand but he was not happy with how it made his home look. Chris and John then realised that there was a niche in the market for a puppy carpet protector fi lm that was more pet focussed. The pair found a manufacturer and with the help of a local designer, came up with a paw print fi lm that was easy to lay and would protect ay and would protect a carpet from little accidents. The company started company started trading in December 2021 and within a short space of hin a short space of time received rave reviews.

Chris said: “We are now embarking ng on a PR campaign to increase awareness and we want to focus more on the trade. We are the only pet y pet focussed carpet protector fi lm on the he market and the beauty of it is that you you can protect your whole carpet and not not just a small patch. We are also more re environmentally friendly than having to ng to throw away and replace a whole carpet arpet which is both expensive and disruptive.” ptive.”

PharmaTRAC Total Digestive Support for Canines

Well-established within the equestrian market, British supplement company BETTALIFE® are delighted to expand their canine range of support, introducing PharmaTRAC Total Digestive Support for Canines to the range, joining their existing canine joint supplement, PharmaQuin Joint Complete HA for Canines.

Based on the success of the equine digestive support formula, new PharmaTRAC Total Digestive Support for Canines targets the dog’s entire gastrointestinal tract, helping to maintain an optimal gastric environment, support normal fermentation patterns, and contribute towards calm behaviour.

PharmaTRAC contains an optimum blend of ingredients shown to maximise dog’s digestive comfort and support the formulation of normal faeces. The inclusion of the prebiotic Inulin helps to restore natural balance in the gut and promote healthy bacteria. Like all BETTALIFE® products, there are no fi llers or bulking agents included in the formula and all ingredients are clearly listed on both the tub, website, and product brochure for complete piece of mind.

Suitable for dogs of all ages, breeds, and activity levels, PharmaTRAC Canine is ideal for maintaining optimal digestive conditions during stressful events or changes in diet, and in trials was seen as particularly benefi cial following periods of soft or loose stalls or digestive upset and sensitivity.

Mikki Doodle Coat Range

Made with a smooth polyester-silk lining to help protect curls while reducing matts and tangles, Mikki’s new Doodles Coat range is designed to keep dogs warm, dry, and tangle-free during the winter months.

Available in several sizes, the new coats are water and windproof, with fully adjustable fi ttings at the neck, body, and legs. Their silky lining works by reducing friction between the dog’s hair and the coat and, unlike other materials, absorbs very little moisture from the fur thus keeping it frizz-free.

Karnlea Chicken Bone Broth

Chicken is the latest addition to the Karnlea Bone Broth range and it’s all set to be a ‘winner, winner’. Chicken broth is known the world over as the perfect comfort food — a light and lean protein source that is as good as its tastes. Now, cats and dogs can get some of that ‘soul food.’ Ideally timed to become a seasonal favourite, Karnlea Bone Broth can be served in a variety of ways: straight from the carton as a liquid, chilled, frozen, or gently warmed to keep out those winter chills. Chicken has many benefi ts: it is a great source of amino acids, helping to build muscle mass, while high levels of Omega 6 provide essential fatty acids to sustain healthy skin and shiny coats. Chicken bone broth also boasts high levels of collagen which support joint health. Highly palatable and easy to digest, Karnlea’s chicken fl avour bone broth is ideal for pets who are fussy eaters or suffer from delicate tummies.

Like Karnlea’s beef and lamb varieties, its new chicken fl avour is slow-cooked using only natural ingredients: free range chicken bones reared on cooperative farms, fi ltered water and a touch of apple cider vinegar to extract protein, collagen and minerals from the cooking process. It is packed in heat-sealed cartons which maintain its freshness without the need of additives or preservatives. It can be used as a supplement, topper, or treat. Each unit contains 500ml of bone broth which has a recommended retail price of £10.99.

Mr Bug Bug Bites gift box

The Mr Bug gift box, a heart-thumping, letterbox sized, box of tail-wagging, nutritious joy. Mr Bug accommodates every imaginable canine taste leanings, mixing Devon-born mealworm powder with everything from beetroot, sweet potato, parsnips, and vegan cheese to honey and peanut butter. Whatever your dog’s bug-munching preferences, this shows off Devon bug cuisine off at its light-to-crunch biscuity best!

Insect treats have traditionally been made from bitter-tasting black fl y larvae that were originally created for cattle feed. Besides being more bitter than a small bag of angry limes, recent research has shown that black fl y larvae is disappointingly high in saturated fats!

Mr Bug is a big believer in the circular economy and the fact that insects are a truly sustainable protein source needing only a fraction of the water, land, and time of traditional farmyard fayre. Epicurean-orientated mealworms with their distinctive nutty twang are rammed with nutritional worth, offering more calcium than milk, more B12 than salmon, and more iron than spinach by offering all 9 amino acids.

Mr Bug comes as Veggie One, A Fruity One, A Nutty One and The Cheesy One varieties, providing crumbly dog biscuity joy.
