The enthusiasm
is also contagious in the Corporate Office, as paws-itive changes
are occurring daily with the advice and comments supplied by our
Pet Consultants. We recently amended fundraising opportunities,
our host/hostess Party Plan systems and our incentive program to
better reflect what our Pet Consultants desire. We are currently
working on individual web pages
for our Pet Consultants that can be purr-sonalized to meet their
needs and will increase traffic and sales geared through their websites.
In addition, work has commenced on our new Cat-alog to effectively
display our Shure Pets product line. As Shure Pets grows daily, we continuously review and revise many of the materials and processes our Pet Consultants use to do business. In the upcoming months, look for information on easier and more efficient ordering methods, new products and a new Cat-alog. Keep your tails wagging and sending us your input. We depend on your feedback! Thank you from
the bottom of our paws. |

| Chicagoland Family Pet Show |
||||
The weekend of March 19-21 saw lots of action and excitement as Shure Pets participated at the Chicagoland Family Pet Expo in Arlington Heights, Illinois. This event turned out to be a wonder-fur success in terms of products sold, increasing the awareness of the Shure Pets name and signing up interested Pet Consultants to the Shure Pets Team. Pet Consultant Sheryl Harris (Chicago, IL) attended the event and added to the success of her business by distributing information on Shure Pets to the over 20,000 pet lovers in attendance. Pictured below is the spacious Shure Pets corner booth with its wide array of products and the Shure Pets Team at the event including Sheryl. We anxiously await next year’s Family Pet Expo.

| Featured Pet Consultant: Adrienne Vivar |
||||
 Adrienne
Vivar (#0052) from Sapulpa, Oklahoma began
her Shure Pets business in late February of this year. Adrienne has
grown her pet business quickly and has already recruited a Consultant
to her team from nearby Tulsa. She discovered Shure Pets while searching
the internet for work-at-home mom affiliated sites. Her strong business
skills combined with her true love and passion for animals have helped
her get off on the right paw. She states “I have always loved working
with animals. In high school, I worked at a veterinary clinic and
then I was a dog bather at a groomer’s, which I loved. Since a child,
I have always wanted to have my own business.” When asked about her
future with Shure Pets, Adrienne says “I think this is an excellent
opportunity to start my own business. I want to work very hard to
develop a strong customer base. I’m hoping to be very successful.”
Adrienne has been happily married for almost seven years and has two
boys. “We all love being outdoors. Hopefully, when my boys are older,
I will be able to return to volunteering with Animal Aid.” Adrienne
is also the proud owner of Cleo (Jack Russell Terrier - see picture
above), Joey (Terrier Mix) and Roxie (white cat). Keep up the howling
good work Adrienne!!!

| Shure Pets Receives Barks of Approval |
||||
"The Paramount Stain and Odor Control (Citrus-Scented) is my favorite. I’ve used this to clean the bird cage, and I think it’s great for my chinchilla cage. Just a few sprays and that’s it. I wipe it off and no smell…I highly recommend this product. I feel confident that our home has improved since we started using the citrus cleaner. We can’t do without it.” – Debbie C., Pet Consultant, Seaside, CA. "My Pet Party had 5 dogs in attendance with their owners and it was quite amusing to watch the dynamics between these furry friends (and the people too). The hostess and her guests had a lot of laughs. Additionally, I purchased the Shure Pets umbrella with my dog's picture and it is totally awesome. It rains a lot in Richmond, Virginia, this time of year so I get to show it off and it makes for a great display at the party.” –Michele C., Pet Consultant, Richmond, VA. "I just completed my first show. It was a great success. The women loved the product and had fun with the merchandise.” –Jean H., Pet Consultant, Clementon, NJ. "I have been trying out the products in my New Puppy on the Block Kit and love them. All four of my dogs got a bath with the Vanilla Aromutt Therapy Shampoo. That stuff is great! They also loved the dog biscuits! I am so excited about this venture.” –Linda C., Pet Consultant, Walkerton, IN. Back to top |

| Shure Pets Products of the Month |

 Purrfect Pet Towel (#410) |
||||
|
The Purrfect Pet Towel functions dually as a cooling and drying towel. The highly absorbent towel will dry your pet completely in just minutes. This Purrfect Pet Towel contains dimples on one side for cooling while it is smooth on the reverse side for increased absorption. This product is a hydrophilic, microporous, reinforced, hi-tech, polymer sponge towel. The purrfect pet towel is 27” by 17” (3 sq. feet). Q: How do I keep my pet cool? A: To help avoid heat stroke, provide your pet with shaded locales and plenty of fresh water (check his/her water bowl several times a day to be sure it is full). Make sure your pet does not overexert himself. Watch for irregular breathing. If your pet appears to be hot, place the purrfect pet towel over him and it will begin to cool him off. |

 Furry Angel Memorial Candle (#706) |
||||
|
Honor your lost pet with this purple angel memorial candle. Included on the candle is written Isla Paschal Richardson’s message “…Grieve not, nor speak of me with tears, but laugh and talk of me as if I were beside you…I loved you so ‘twas Heaven here with you.” Blank card also included. Burns for up to three days. Q: What are some activities that help humans deal with pet loss? A: An effective way to begin the healing process is to speak about your lost pet and your feelings of grief to a trusted family member or friend. Ignoring and shutting out the painful feelings has a tendency to only make them last longer. By talking to someone compassionate and trustworthy, you will be able to accept the loss and return to a normal lifestyle quicker. In addition, many people today find that honoring their pet's life through a ceremony helps them to adjust to life without them. These activities help to fill the emptiness and give the bereaved an opportunity to express their deep feelings of affection and sadness. It may be as simple as writing a small poem in memory of your pet or assembling a special book of pictures. Shure Pets Products for Pets >> Back To Top |
