Head-Turning "Good Stuff Pet Truck" Rolls into Arizona Offering Free Dog Treats and Dog-Training Demos
Photo-Opp Truck Features Backyard-Styled Doggy Lounge, with "Grass" and Picket Fence
OGDEN, Utah, May 4, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- You've never seen a dog treat truck like this before. From the oversized dog bone and paw, to the lighted elements and retro look, it'll be love at first sight.
Dog enthusiasts can check out the Good Stuff Pet Truck on Thursday, May 5, in Tucson, Ariz., and on Saturday, May 7, in Phoenix. Free tips from a local dog trainer and dog treats await canines and their humans when this new, eye-catching dog lover's truck rolls into Tucson's Reid Park and Laveen Village's Cesar Chavez Park.
A custom truck made just for dogs, the Good Stuff Pet Truck is stopping in cities across America this spring and summer to help educate pet owners about using positive reinforcement dog training to ensure their animals enjoy deliciously balanced lives.
Pet parents who stop by the Good Stuff Pet Truck may participate in free dog-training demos and Q&A sessions with a dog trainer. They'll also find a fun backdrop for a photo opp in the backyard-styled doggy lounge, complete with "grass" and picket fence. Photos can be shared via Twitter and Instagram using #GoodStuffPetTruck.
When it comes to training, dogs learn best through positive reinforcement because it teaches them desirable behaviors. Rewarding dogs with small treats and praise for things we want them to do motivates them to repeat those behaviors.
"Positively reinforced, fit dogs are happy dogs," said veterinarian Dr. Ruth MacPete – nationally known as Dr. Ruth the Pet Vet. "Overweight or obese dogs have an increased risk of developing osteoarthritis, type 2 diabetes, heart and respiratory disease, and even cancer – and more than half of dogs in the United States are carrying extra pounds."
American Pet Nutrition, makers of Vita Bone® Dog Biscuits and the new Supreme Source® grain-free dog food, sponsors the Good Stuff Pet Truck Tour. Dog owners can learn more at www.GoodStuffPetTruck.com and follow the tour at #GoodStuffPetTruck. See local event details below.
