It's shaping up to be an exciting year! We are adding new products and points of distribution. We're excited to launch our new products & new
catalog
. Within the catalog, you will find new products that many of you have been requesting (Natural Flea & Tick Shampoo) and some impressive updates to a few of your favorites. We now have medical grade, dual-sided Pura Tips with twice as much serum for the same price in our Ear Cleansing System. Also worth noting is our new and improved Best of Comfort Ergo Stairs that are vacuum packed, saving on storage space and delivery costs while still being lightweight and extremely sturdy.
Thank you for being a part of our success and growth and promoting organic pet wellness. We're looking forward to seeing you in June at SuperZoo in Booth # 1757.
Sincerely,

We strive to make a difference with our products and how we give back. Pura Naturals Pet has continued our sponsorship of
Karma Rescue
and the
Paws for Life Program
. A few weeks ago, we were privileged to take part of an emotional graduation at the Lancaster State Prison in Lancaster, CA. Inmates trained dogs for nearly a year that were gifted to U.S. Veterans with PTSD as a service dog knowing up to 70 commands.
The California State Legislation recognized the inmate trainers and canines. The canine certificates were provided to the Veteran's. It was amazing to see the healing powers of a dog and support for those who have served.
