Hello –
It was wonderful to see so many of you in person at the recent Global Pet Expo in Orlando, Florida. Not only did we see many familiar faces, but it was also wonderful to connect with new retailers who are committed to organic pet wellness and grooming for their customers.
Show support came heavily from the USA but we also saw growth opportunities in Chile, Columbia, Peru, Panama, Costa Rica, Denmark, Belgium, Guatemala, Brazil, Australia, India, the Dominican Republic and Trinidad & Tobago.
For those not able to travel to the show, all retailers and groomers can participate in our Show Specials that run until April 8th.
Separately, we've had lots of inquiries on how our distributors, retailers, and groomers can aid the pets in Ukraine. Please read below on how to support the incredible relief work with Greater Good Charities, U-Hearts, and Save the Pets of Ukraine. Our industry has always shown compassion during a crisis and I know once again, that we will all work together to help animals in need.
Sincerely,
|

Beth Sommers,
President & Chief Merchandising Officer

Cats and Essential Oil Safety |
|
Some of our most successful marketing pieces have been due to customer inquiries. Lately, we've had a number of customers inquire about felines and their safety when using essential oils. We developed a document that you can download, Essential Oils And How They Can Affect Cats for you to share with your team. This information is the main reason that all of our cat products are unscented as feline safety is paramount.
|
|
Use our digital posters in your display windows, in-store signage, or e-mails to your customers. It's a great way to highlight the eco-friendly products they're looking for. |

From shelter dog to service dog! Juniper joined PFL from a shelter, just over a year ago with four of her siblings, babies that were all sick with Parvo. All pups survived and 3 went to their forever homes. Juniper showed special skills and joined the Prison Training Program for service dogs and excelled in learning specified commands and tasks.
Cadena’s International assists in crises and disasters all around the world and selected a service/therapy dog, Juniper to aid their Go-Team. With the amount of trauma they witness, and what survivors endure, Juniper will be a welcome sight to all in need.

Adopt Charlotte. This girl will look at you and smile while she melts to the ground for love and affection. She can be nervous or shy when meeting new people, but once she warms up she's the kindest and gentlest soul. She can be overwhelmed by new dogs, although she's polite with others she'd prefer a home as the center of your attention! She’s an active girl that would love a family that is ready to get her out and about for daily adventures and walks. Adopt Charlotte!

Adopt Ranger. I can’t wait to be your new best friend! I LOVE to meet new people and will gladly show you all the love and affection I have to give! I can lack confidence in big groups, but I love to play one-on-one with my canine friends. I would love to find a forever home with another dog that matches my energy levels. Whether it’s daily walks around the neighborhood or a jog or hike through the mountains, I would love to join on adventures. Adopt Ranger!

Adopt Zena. She is a total love bug and loves to meet new people. She'll gladly lean up against you for all the love and affection you have to offer! She wants to be the center of your universe, so she'd prefer a home as the only pet. She loves the outdoors and to join you on your daily adventures, but she’d be happy with a few short walks a day around the neighborhood followed up by a good snooze at home! Adopt Zena!

Pure And Natural Pet Has Planted 2,225 Trees!
|
|
It's almost Earth Day - but we feel Earth Day should be observed and celebrated every day.
We're proud of our association with One Tree Planted and the fact that we've planted 2,225 trees, chiefly in the USA and National Parks.
This is a unique opportunity to support a special wildlife habitat and corridor restoration to restore and conserve nature for biodiversity while also supporting local communities. Donations to this project will help plant 3 million trees as part of a large-scale initiative that will connect forests for wildlife while strengthening forest monitoring and preventing future deforestation. The trees will be planted in the Albertine Rift forests of Uganda, close to where Dr. Jane Goodall began her extraordinary career and fell in love with chimpanzees.
