In recent years, pet water has become increasingly popular
primarily due to a new awareness in health and nutrition.
Just as safe, clean water is an important part of our lives,
so too, it should be a vital part of our pet’s lives.
In retail stores, whole aisles are devoted to selling clean,
fresh water for human consumption. Yet, even when shopping
in a pet store, we rarely find much of anything in terms of
safe, clean drinking pet water for our pets. We believe the
pet industry continues to grow in the knowledge and production
of nutritional foods, but still lacks the needed awareness
for safe pet water for proper hydration for our animal friends.
Our vision is to offer dog , cat and other pet owners a safe
pet water, yet convenient way to keep pets hydrated!
Convenience:
Although there are always exceptions to any rule, most dogs
and cats prefer to lap their water. Just as humans typically
don’t lap water; dogs and cats typically don’t
drink from bottles!
Misty Pure is packaged in disposable bowls! Once your dog,
cat or other pet is finished, just toss the container in
the recycle bin for easy clean up. For short term storage
of unfinished product, use the snap on lid.
Water Quality:
Why is dog water quality important? After all, don’t
some dogs prefer lakes, ponds, or even toilets as their
drink of choice?? This may be true, but just as young children
require direction when it comes to consumption of foods
and drinks, so do our dogs. Studies have found that good
quality water has numerous health benefits such as:
Hydration of internal organs helping them function
properly
Increased energy
Helping our immune system
Flushing out waste and toxins
As
pet owners we should place as much attention on the quality
of the water our pet drinks as we do on the ingredients
that go into the best pet foods. Not all water is the same.
Quality of water is just as important as the quantity. Regular
consumption of water that has been contaminated with heavy
metals or residues of chemicals will not promote good health.
Most tap water in municipalities comes from surface water,
such as lakes and reservoirs, and it must be treated to
filter out particulates and kill microorganisms. If the
treatment system is working properly, the water also will
be tested for approximately 80 different compounds as dictated
by EPA regulations. Unfortunately, there are several hundred
thousand chemicals present in the environment from fertilizers,
insecticides, pesticides, fungicides and other chemical
and industrial wastes. Therefore, many pollutants in water
are never identified.
