Sales
of ‘natural’ and ‘organic’ pet food soar
In a move to eat healthier, pet owners in the U.S.
are increasingly looking for natural and organic
products to feed to their pets. This is such a
significant trend that sales of natural and organic pet
foods are expected to outpace those in the overall pet
food market in the near future.

Delay
a dental visit
People are aware that
caring for their own teeth is a must in order to avoid a
painful visit to the dentist. However, few brush their
pets’ teeth, and many feed them junk food, which is
why virtually all adult dogs and cats have some dental
disease.
