Go Dog Go! Dog Owners Now Take their Pups Everywhere and How Pawket Treats Is Tapping Into That Growing Trend
We're seeing a societal shift in dog ownership behavior. Our pups are now so important, taking them everywhere we go. Recent statistics bear this out. In the US in 2018, 1.8M dogs regularly went to work with their owners, a 23% increase from 2012, and 6.6M dogs frequented the 58,051 dog-friendly restaurants. Twenty-five percent of the hotels on hotels.com are now pet friendly, and 17.5 million dogs stayed in these hotels in 2018, an 18% increase in just ten years.

Water bowls on every block. Puppuccinos at every cafe. Four-legged children in strollers.
There is seeing a societal shift in dog ownership behavior. Pups are now so important, dog owners are taking them everywhere they go.
Recent statistics bear this out. In the US in 2018, 1.8M dogs regularly went to work with their owners, a 23% increase from 2012, and 6.6M dogs frequented the 58,051 dog-friendly restaurants.

Dogs are no longer stuck at home; and with 75% of dog parents giving treats to their fur-kids on a daily basis, a market for portable and healthy treats has been created. Enter the innovative dog treat company PAWKET TREATS - and its tailor-made treats for pooches on the go.
"We don't carry around gum and mints in a plastic bag, we buy them in packaging that's designed to be with us." said PAWKET TREATS founder, Mark Shenfield, who recently built a human-grade facility to make coin-sized dog treats wrapped in a roll like Lifesavers.
"Dog treats have historically been sold in big bags and boxes, intended for use at home, which no longer lines-up with how people spend time with their dogs."
After 6 months in business, PAWKET TREATS is already selling their treats in hundreds of stores across the country; and they just announced their new innovation, a Dog Treat Dispenser that's designed to make carrying around treats even easier. Think PEZ®, only for your pups!
The Dispenser launched on Kickstarter last month and quickly became the most-funded "Dog Treat" project in the history of the platform!
With more and more dog owners not wanting to leave their best friends at home, PAWKET TREATS is definitely barking up the right tree with their portable line of treats.
