Pets Are Foodies, Too
With an array of fresh, all natural, freeze dried and human grade food available today, you can now treat your pet to a delicious and healthy meal. Here are some of our favorites…
YaDoggie Kibble:

YaDoggie Fresh:
You’ve probably tried a meal service for yourself. How about one for your pup? YaDoggie Fresh is human-grade fresh dog food delivered right to your door, ready to cook in minutes. Users simply open the pre-portioned package, pour the contents into an Instant Pot and 20 minutes later they have an ample supply of homemade dog food. YaDoggie Fresh is available in turkey and salmon formulations, both of which were carefully designed by a licensed veterinary nutritionist. For subscribers who don’t own an Instant Pot, YaDoggie’s human-grade dog food can also be made in any standard pressure cooker or stove-top pot.
For a 35lb dog you’ll need 2 bags per week, so that’s $30 per week + shipping which equates to roughly $150 per month. If you’re using it as a mixer it would be about $75 per month. If you’re using it as a topper it would be about $40 per month. Shop

When we first opened the bag of these dog treats, we wanted to eat them ourselves. Then our 3-year-old golden retriever tried them out. At first, he was unsure of the delicious scent of cinnamon and apples. But once he tried it, he was an instant fan and wanted more. Your dogs will too with Phyto Animal Health HempBone Bacon-Apple Donuts cannabidiol (CBD) pet treats. These all-natural CBD-infused soft chews are not only tasty, but they are healthy too!

Fetchcoins:
Fetchcoins is the world’s first ever mobile pet ecosystem. Using AI and blockchain technology, pet owners can record their pets’ medical history and identity on an immutable ledger, monitor their health, post on social media when certain products or brands have been used and earn digital coins or “bones” from the brands mentioned that can then be used to purchase products. Pet owners can also input their pets’ character traits so when preferred stores or products are passed, AI can generate comments on behalf of the pet (that the owner can approve before being posted on social media). It adds a new dimension to how people look after and care for their pets.
Fetchcoins are giving away the first 50,000 pendants for free so people can test out the benefits of the pendant for their pets. Shop
Ellie, the Smart Pill Box:
Ellie is the Smart Pill Box with brains and beauty. Ellie allows you to organize all pills in seconds, set reminders, and track progress. Each compartment contains one type of medication, so you can pour the pills in rather that sorting them pill-by-pill like you do with traditional pill boxes. Ellie is great for animals because they have much different medication regimens than we do. Many times, they only need one pill a week, one pill per month, or one every three months. For this reason, pet parents forget to give their pets the correct medications on time, especially for flea & tick and heartworm. Ellie is an empowering wellness accessory that is great for pets and pet parents alike!
