Meet Veterans and Their Service Dogs at VetDogs Licensee Booths

Orlando, FL (March, 2014) – America’s VetDogs® (www.VetDogs.org), the premier not-for-profit organization that provides specially trained guide and service dogs to disabled veterans is excited to participate in this year’s Global Pet Expo. By joining licensee partners Bil-Jac® (booth #1067 – America’s VetDogs® Dog Treats), Ethical Products (booth #2335 – America’s VetDogs® toys and beds) and Petking, Inc. (booth #3701 – America’s VetDogs® rawhide, biscuits and jerky), VetDogs expects to generate awareness for the various dog products that helps support the training and placement of guide and service dogs to disabled veterans of all eras – at no charge to them.

“We are pleased to have a presence at this year’s show with our three dedicated partners who believe and support our mission of helping those who have served our country live with dignity and independence,” said Wells B. Jones, CEO of America’s VetDogs.

“These partnerships and products offer an incredible opportunity to further our collective commitment to offer quality products while simultaneously supporting the men and women who have sacrificed so much for our country,” says Michelle Alfandari, president of MODA Licensing, the licensing agency for America’s VetDogs.

In addition to showing support for America’s disabled veterans, the program also highlights the vital bond between people and their animals – whether they are assistance dogs or pets – and creates brand loyalty for new and existing customers.

America’s VetDogs products are manufactured to the highest standards of quality, and they are distributed at a variety of major retail pet specialty and retail chains, as well as independent pet specialty stores. To find a list of stores near you, visit www.VetDogs.com.

VetDogs graduates and their assistance dogs will be the honored guests at partner booths throughout the show. We invite you to come meet them and learn how their service dogs have changed their lives.

About America’s VetDogs® – the Veteran’s K-9 Corps®
