NEW YORK, Aug. 16, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Better Choice Company, Inc. (OTCQB: BTTR) (the “Company” or “Better Choice”), an animal health and wellness CBD company, and Authentic Brands Group (ABG), a global brand development, marketing and entertainment company, today announced the launch of a CBD pet product line under the Elvis Presley Hound Dog brand, with an initial release of two SKUs, Hound Dog Peanut Butter Calming & Relaxation Support Supplement and Hound Dog Bacon Skin & Immune Support Supplement.
“We are constantly striving to put out the highest quality products for pet parents, and with ABG, we have developed a product to help dogs live their best lives,” said Damian Dalla-Longa, Co-CEO of Better Choice Company. “We believe that good health practices and nutrition contribute to and promote a higher quality of life for our pets.”
Elvis Presley loved his dogs and all animals. His dedication to their well-being was reflected through his special bond with his beloved Basset Hound, Sherlock, and Chow-Chow, Get Lo. In honor of the “King of Rock ‘n’ Roll’s” 1956 hit, “Hound Dog,” Better Choice introduces a collection of CBD-infused chews to promote the overall health and wellness of dogs.
Elvis Presley Hound Dog Peanut Butter Calming & Relaxation Support Supplement is specifically formulated to improve dogs’ relaxation levels and heart health. A combination of L-Carnitine, L-Arginine, magnesium, potassium, melatonin and broad-spectrum hemp oil in these chews supports healthy heart function and promote calmness.
Elvis Presley Hound Dog Bacon Skin & Immune Support Supplement is designed to help support dogs’ immune systems and promote healthy fur. Each chew is developed with the perfect formulation of natural ingredients including sunflower-derived Lecithin, biotin, Vitamin E and broad-spectrum hemp oil.
“We’re pleased to partner with Better Choice, a best-in-class CBD company, to bring a new product to market that prioritizes the well-being of our pets,” said Daniel W. Dienst, Executive Vice Chairman, ABG. “Like many of us, Elvis had a special connection to his dogs, so we see this as a strong extension of the Hound Dog brand.”
The pet industry will get a first look at Elvis Presley Hound Dog at SuperZoo, the leading pet industry show, held at Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas from August 19 – August 22, 2019.
Elvis Presley Hound Dog Peanut Butter Calming & Relaxation Support Supplement and Elvis Presley Hound Dog Bacon Skin & Immune Support Supplement will be available for consumer purchase starting on October 1, 2019 at elvishounddog.com for a suggested retail price of $29.99 (30-count package).
