The Kennel Club and Mars Petcare have collaboratively launched Partners in Petcare, a strategic five-year partnership aimed at enhancing the well-being of pets, pet owners, and breeders.
Partners in Petcare will provide The Kennel Club community with privileged access to leading Mars Petcare brands, including Royal Canin® and James Wellbeloved®. The partnership extends beyond products to encompass various veterinary care services, nutritional offerings, and wellness products. The initiative also introduces a recommendation programme designed to facilitate a seamless transition for new puppies, offering peace of mind for both breeders and new pet owners.
Mutual Benefits for Pets and Owners
By combining Mars Petcare’s nutritional expertise with The Kennel Club’s rich heritage and extensive experience, the collaboration aims to reinforce the special bond between pets, their owners, and the professional community of breeders and veterinarians. The ultimate goal is to enhance care outcomes for pets through a comprehensive and integrated approach.
The Kennel Club will feature the newly established partnership at the upcoming Crufts 2024 event. This platform will serve to highlight the joint efforts of The Kennel Club and Mars Petcare in advancing pet care and providing an enriched experience for pet owners.
