The Company of Animals has seen its sales rocket in Europe despite the recession and, with a 25 per cent increase on 2009 across 27 countries, its passion for building relationships with European retailers is stronger than ever.
The Company of Animals has focussed on improving its support to retailers and has launched stunning new ‘clam shell’ packaging and a range of point of sale material available in five different languages. The in-store display for Pet Corrector has already been rolled out in over 2,500 stores in Europe and has proved to be hugely effective.
The redeveloped website is now easier to use and is a great resource for retailers as it’s full of downloadable marketing and point of sale material, such as posters, leaflets, high-resolution images and promotional videos.
Company of Animals’ expert staff will be available at the show to discuss and demonstrate the many new additions to their premium range of training and behaviour products. These include:
HALTI
Dr Roger Mugford developed the HALTI Headcollar after he found that one of the most common training problems he was seeing in his referral practice was dogs that pulled and were hard to control on a lead. HALTI has precipitated a revolution in dog training, and made many a dangerous dog safe.
The HALTI works on the simple principle that if you guide the head, the body must surely follow. HALTI was the first canine headcollar and remains the world’s favourite because the design has been constantly refined with a dog’s comfort in mind, it is simple to fit and easy to use.
Pet Corrector
Pet Corrector is an amazingly effective training device to interrupt unwanted behaviours such as jumping up or stealing. It emits compressed air with a ‘hiss’ sound to instantly get a dog’s attention so training can begin. The Pet Corrector comes with a detailed training guide including key dos and don’ts to ensure that it is used correctly. There is also a carrying holster so the Pet Corrector can always be close at hand the moment it is needed.
CLIX Car Safe
The CLIX CarSafe is a travel harness that gives maximum protection to a dog in a car crash. It is easy to use in any make and model of car as it simply plugs into the existing seat belt mechanism. The CarSafe harness is made from designated seatbelt webbing, lined with soft neoprene to cover all points of contact with the dog’s body. CLIX CarSafe is primarily designed to protect dogs in cars but can also be used to walk dogs, so no need to carry extra equipment between home, car and walkies. The unique ‘X-Cross’ design gives an ergonomic fit that absorbs energy across the strong chest on a dog’s body during a crash.
CLIX Training Range
As a complete ‘one-stop’ shop for all your training needs, the CLIX range features everything that you need to train your dog from a puppy through to adulthood. Featuring long lines, puppy house lines, whistles, clicker training packs, agility equipment, dumb-bells and much more, no other range is as comprehensive or as thoughtfully designed.
No Bark Collars are a new alternative to training collars that use a spray of air to interrupt unwanted behaviour. Thoughtfully designed and very easy to use No Bark Collars come with two bark deterrent settings – vibrate or sound so you can choose whichever sensation your dog is most sensitive to. The ‘voice’ box weighs only 60 grams, and features three levels of stimulation, low, medium and high. It is shower-proof and battery powered.
The sensation is activated when your dog barks and when combined with a positive reward based training programme, your dog will soon learn to be quiet in no time. The adjustable collars are lightweight and are available in two sizes; small / medium in red, or medium / large in yellow.
Marrowchew from Sporn is the world’s only dual flavoured edible dog chew! The Marrowchew is bone-shaped and available in four different sizes and four delectable flavour combinations. Choose from Mint and Vanilla, Bacon and Cheese, Chicken and Cheese, Peanut Butter and Honey.
Suitable for all dogs and puppies, the Marrowchews will help clean your dogs teeth and strengthen gums. Marrowchews are also great boredom-busters, perfect for keeping a dog busy so that he doesn’t have to resort to chewing your furniture.
Made entirely from vegetable-based ingredients, the Marrowchews are incredibly tasty and the Mint flavour can help freshen your dog’s breath too. Sensitively priced and great value, each pack contains three chews.
The Company of Animals is the exclusive distributor of a revolutionary new way to train and treat. Rattle & Reward are delicious all-natural treats that are cleverly stored in a stylish embossed metal tin that are available in two varieties – one for cats, ‘Cat Cravings’ and one for dogs, ‘Doggie Delights’. Both are hypoallergenic and contain no nasty additives making them a healthy alternative to many other varieties of training treat.
The cat variety is rich in fresh salmon, low in carbs, whilst the fresh chicken dog variety is also packed with glucosamine, chondroitin, prebiotics, dandelion and mixed herbs.
The small storage tin keeps smelly crumbs out of your pocket and also acts as a training aid because it creates an enticing rattle when shaken to get your dog’s attention.
