Managing Director of Sure Petcare David Hallas said, “It’s extremely rewarding for the company to have been selected as an honoree in the CES 2020 Innovation Awards competition. With pets increasingly becoming an extension of the family, our products are giving owners unprecedented insights into their pets’ lives. Our technology can help spot shifts in behavior and activity over time, which may signal changes in a pet’s health and well-being.

“CES is widely regarded as one of the most important and influential technology events and we’re looking forward to demonstrating our eco-system of smart products, which have firmly cemented our position as a leading pet technology company globally,” he said.

Sure Petcare will feature its latest pet technology products at its booth, with specialists on hand to demonstrate their features and benefits. ANIMO, the dog behavior and activity tracker, learns and interprets the unique behavior and activity patterns of dogs from sleeping and scratching to barking and more. Owners can follow their pet’s progress and set goals through the associated app, giving them a greater understanding of their pet’s health and well-being.

The company also will demonstrate its SUREFEED Microchip Pet Feeder Connect, a connected feeder that helps prevent pets stealing food from co-habiting pet’s bowls, while also recording the time and weight of food eaten. This information creates a detailed understanding of a pet’s feeding patterns through the SURE PETCARE app, giving owners the opportunity to spot potential health issues if there are changes in their feeding habits.

Sure Petcare will be at CES Unveiled on Jan. 6. The main CES event will be held Jan. 7-10 at the Las Vegas Convention Center.
