Shur-Lock(TM) Collar for Post-Surgical Pet Care Available Online - MarketWatch (press release)

ST. JOSEPH, Mich., Apr 26, 2012 (GlobeNewswire via COMTEX) -- Perfect Pet Products, LLC (PPP) announced that it now carries Shur-Lock(TM) collars for pets. A type of Elizabethan collar, the Shur-Lock(TM) collar is two to four times thicker than the average collar, ensuring the collar safely stays put on pets. The collars are 2-4 times more adjustable. They can be adjusted for a comfortable fit using nylon screws to hold them in place-they are literally locked together. As one of the only online pet shops to carry the Shur-Lock(TM) , Perfect Pet Products stocks a variety of sizes that are suitable for pocket pets, rabbits, birds, puppies, kittens, dogs and cats.

Perfect Pet Products LLC announced that its online pet shop carries the Shur-Lock(TM) collar for pets recovering from surgical operations. Shur-Lock(TM) fits pets better and is stronger and more durable than any other collars. "You pay for what you get," states Dr. Steve Hadaway, a veterinarian in Michigan. "The Shur-Lock(TM) collar is a true breakthrough in post-surgical care," said Dr. Hadaway. "Unlike other flimsy collars, this one fits comfortably, thanks to an easy adjustment system. Pets feel comfortable, and the durable material prevents pets from scratching or tearing off the collar." The adjustment system utilizes lightweight nylon screws and a wing nut system to lock into place. This allows one collar (like the 36" collar) to be comfortably adjusted to fit pets with a neck size between 4" to 8". Traditional collars made from lightweight material cannot be adjusted, and a traditional 36" collar could only fit a 7" to 8" neck. .

Most sales are to veterinary hospitals, however, not all veterinarians' use the Shur-Lock(TM) since PPP does not advertise. When veterinarians realize that this collar is available they buy them. Dr. Hadaway states, "Unfortunately for those veterinarians who do not use Shur-Lock(TM) collars, they still see dogs come back that have chewed or licked their incisions open or chewed the bandage off, etc." Shur-Lock(TM) collars bring greater flexibility to pet owners and veterinarians. There's no need to guess about fit, or have to return to an animal clinic for a new collar -- it's easy to adjust the collar and make it fit right the first time! Perfect Pet Products also emphasized the collar's durability, and that a pet cannot easily remove it. "Since the collar is made from a thicker, more durable material than traditional collars, it is difficult for a pet to tear or remove it," said Dr. Hadaway. "This ensures that the collar can stay on and do its job -- allowing pets to safely heal following surgical operations."

Perfect Pet Products is also offers at-home fecal test kits which is a complete, pre-paid test suitable for all pets, including dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, reptiles, turtles, pocket and exotic pets. The fecal test sample is evaluated in a licensed veterinary laboratory. PPP also provides an at home heartworm test for Heartworm, Lyme and Ehrlichia. "The Lawn & Urine Damage kit and Pet Health Checkup both utilize a simple one step urine test and are an important way for pet owners to ensure the health of their pets without paying expensive veterinary bills. Worms and all these other diseases can be extremely harmful to a pet's health, but with the at-home tests, it's easy to determine whether a pet has any of these problems," states Dr. Hadaway.

Perfect Pet Products also provide products to help with puppies, kittens, dogs or cats urinating in the house, garden or yard. The veterinarians at PPP have 40+ years of behavioral and training experience to help you. Perfect Pet Products also offers a feline leukemia test, fecal worm test for horses, and giardia test.
