Purina launches pet-centric FREE websites

A PR buddy of mine in Toronto passed along this helpful info:

"Puppies and kittens are undeniably cute with their oversized paws, big eyes and playful spirits. But without proper training those adorable pets can turn into less delightful cats and dogs. Like new parents coming home from the hospital, new pet owners can feel overwhelmed when they bring home a puppy or kitten. And more people feel these emotions than you may realize: while 44 per cent of Canadian households have children, over half (51 per cent) own a pet!




"While pet adoption shows no sign of slowing down, new free online resources like www.mypuppy.ca and www.mykitten.ca can help new pet parents make sense of the new furry addition to their family. Gone are the days of frantic phone calls to the vet, pet store or neighbour – now Canadians can easily access pet related information with the simple click of a mouse.

"They can even learn how to train their puppies by using MyPuppy School. This first-of-its-kind online video series, starring award-winning dog trainer Kayl McCann, that teaches Canadians how to train puppies to do the basics (sit, stay, lie down) as well as how to respond positively to grooming and proper feeding techniques.
