The First Healthy Gourmet Snack Made With Real Vegetables

KANSAS CITY, Mo., Oct. 25 /PRNewswire/ -- Health-minded pet parents who have blended, steamed and juiced vegetables to make them more easily digestible for their canine companions, now have a more convenient and even healthier option thanks to Splintek(R), the makers of Pegetables(TM). The new product line, pronounced like "vegetables" with a P, is made from natural ingredients that provide dogs with the daily beneficial supplements derived from real vegetable content.

"These are not your 'garden-variety' dog treats," said Steve Stecklein, chief marketing officer for the company. "Pegetables are made with real vegetables to support your dog's daily diet and help them live longer, healthier lives, but we've improved on nature by fortifying them with antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids, protein, fiber, calcium, and vitamins A, B, C, D and E."

Pegetables are available in three tasty flavors: Carrot helps fight free radicals to lower the risk for macular degeneration; Corn helps provide a shiny coat and strengthen the immune system; and, Celery helps maintain healthy joints and detoxify the liver. Naturally shaped to resemble their actual garden counterparts and to aid consumption, Pegetables include real vegetable flakes throughout to allow for easy breakup when chewed. The long-lasting treats are designed to keep dogs busy while the chewing action helps clean their teeth. Packaged in 8-ounce, re-sealable poly bags, Pegetables will be sold initially in independent pet stores nationwide for a suggested retail price of $8.99. For store locations, visit http://www.pegetables.com/ or call 1-800-697-5085.

Pegetables were developed in response to buyers of Splintek's GelPedic Pet Beds, who expressed the need for healthy snacks for their dogs, explained Stecklein. "With the humanization of pets trend, we're seeing dog owners choosing everything for their dog with the same care they choose for themselves. We're excited that we have come up with a formulation that offers the perfect balance of taste and nutrition, and we are confident that Pegetables will further solidify the trust that pet owners have in our products."

Splintek, located in Kansas City, has been designing health and comfort products since 1996. In addition to Pegetables and GelPedic Pet Beds, the privately held company manufactures and markets SleepRight Adjustable Night Guards, SleepRight Side Sleeping Pillows, and ErgoPic dental pics. http://www.splintek.com/
