Before
the opening bell, OurPet’s Company (OTCQX: OPCO) highlighted a recent
presentation by Kathleen Homyock, the company’s vice president of sales and
business development. The presentation, titled “Technology Translated to Pet
Fitness, Food and Fun,” was made at last month’s National Pet Industry Trade
Show, which was hosted by the Pet Industry Joint Advisory Council (Canada).
Homyock used her time at the podium to showcase intelligent technology
accessories, such as OPCO’s recently launched OurPets® Intelligent Pet Care™
product line (http://dtn.fm/F64bL), and their ability to help pet owners
effectively monitor the health and wellbeing of their pets.
“It is
always interesting to speak with industry professionals about how smart
technology is changing pet products,” Homyock stated in this morning’s news
release. “I was excited to have the opportunity to speak at the show in
September and I am even more excited to work for a company that values this
technology and continuously works to bring intelligent health and fitness
monitoring products into the marketplace.”

The
emergence of intelligent technology accessories in the pet industry is
particularly intriguing when studying pet ownership statistics. According to
research firm Mintel, an impressive 75 percent of Americans in their 30s have
dogs, while roughly 51 percent have cats. This figure is substantially higher
than that of the overall population, which clocks in at about 50 percent for
dogs and 35 percent for cats. All told, today’s young Americans are much more
likely to have pets than their predecessors.
This
trend is significant, as pet owners between the ages of 18 and 34 have shown
the most open to adopting new technologies to care for their furry friends. A
2015 survey by Packaged Facts found that the age group led the way in the use
of webcams, smartphones, motion sensors and collars with tracking devices to
follow their dogs’ activities. With these technologies already being
implemented, the use of dedicated devices leveraging the Internet of Things
model is a rapidly growing trend upon which OurPet’s Company is currently
positioned to capitalize.
The
company’s OurPets® Intelligent Pet Care™ line utilizes smart technology to
seamlessly monitor pet health through the use of the free IntelligentPetLink™
smartphone app (http://dtn.fm/6QnA1). The line’s products currently include the
SmartScoop – Intelligent Litter Box (http://dtn.fm/E50ip), the SmartLink Feeder
– Intelligent Pet Bowl (http://dtn.fm/1SsjU), and the SmartLink Waterer –
Intelligent Water Fountain (http://dtn.fm/R3wp3).
