(PRESS RELEASE) BOZEMAN, MT — West Paw and Earth Animal, two Certified B Corporations and pet industry leaders that share a commitment to bringing healthy, safe and responsibly made product solutions to pet parents, jointly announce an exciting new co-branded product collaboration. Introducing Funnl, a new enrichment dog toy by West Paw that has been uniquely designed to enhance your dog’s chew experience exclusively with Earth Animal No-Hide Dog Chews.
“Earth Animal’s mission to enhance quality of life for animals, and the Earth, aligns so well with what we stand for at West Paw,” said Spencer Williams, West Paw CEO. “Our two teams brought their unique passions to this collaboration and created a solution to keep our best friends engaged with a dynamic new toy exclusively paired with Earth Animal’s No-Hide Dog Chews. From teething puppies, and dogs with excess energy or suffering from boredom, to senior dogs with mobility issues and more, there are so many ways to Funnl your daily dog experiences.”
Pet parents simply slide a small, medium or large Earth Animal No-Hide Dog Chew into their West Paw Funnl toy. The combination of the dog chew with this innovatively designed enrichment toy not only offers a savory snack, but a multitude of brain-boosting benefits and long-lasting, wholesome fun that dogs love.
Funnl is made in the USA, and crafted from West Paw’s beloved Seaflex, a combination of ocean-bound plastic and zero-waste Zogoflex materials, that is 100% recyclable, non-toxic, BPA-free, latex-free, FDA-compliant and dishwasher safe. Built for moderate chewers, it is designed exclusively to hold an Earth Animal No-Hide Dog Chew in place, for long-lasting fun, and various benefits the combination provides each dog. Additionally, a secret interior groove offers the option to add Earth Animal Wisdom Food or West Paw Creamy Treats for an extra delicious, special surprise.
“Together with West Paw, our companies are dedicated to making our world a bit better for dogs, their parents and the planet, too,” said Stewart Shanley, CEO of Earth Animal. “Both of our companies were founded with this mission at heart, and I’m thrilled by this new product collaboration that brings our brands together to offer a new dog chew experience that draws out the incredible flavors of our No-Hide Dog Chews, and brings even more joy and enrichment to the dog’s day.”
Earth Animal No-Hide Dog Chews are the leading, healthy alternative to rawhide. Made with real, simple ingredients, No-Hide Dog Chews are delicious and digestible treats that keep dogs blissfully content. The Veterinarian-innovated and formulated recipe is not only easy on a dog’s tummy, but also promotes healthy teeth and gums. Known for compassionately sourced, humanely, and sustainably raised products, these super tasty dog chews are gluten and grain-free, mixed, rolled and baked in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.
