Pet Experiences Requested!

PRESS RELEASE

CALGARY, AB – The 2013 Summit for Urban Animal Strategies focused on the dilemmas faced by the Urban Animal industry in creating positive pet experiences for both people and pets in our communities.

An important element of the Pet Experience Project is discovering the personal experiences of industry leaders, volunteers, advocates and pet families. To achieve this, the Urban Animal Program is seeking “Pet Experience” stories. Using #PEPTalk, members of the Urban Animal community are invited to share their stories by uploading videos to YouTube, sharing on Twitter and Facebook or by written submission to Shannon.woodward@petlynxmail.com for InfoStream.

“Essentially, Pet owners become involved with animals to experience unconditional love and to invest care and compassion,” said Larry R. Evans, President and CEO of PetLynx Corporation. “What pet owners desire most is encouraging industry partners who enhance, resource and sustain them in this relationship. Pet owners are hungry for lifelong relationships with partners who help them achieve their goals and mitigate  risks when they hit a bump in the road.”
