Hollywood CA August 24, 2009; Flydog, a division of Perfect Pet Solutions, Inc., announced today that its Spill-Proof Travel Bowl has been selected by Distinctive Assets for its HollyWOOF A-List Doggie Gift Bag. Flydog’s travel bowl will be given to 25 Hollywood celebrity dog owners, including Ellen DeGeneres, Mickey Rourke, Glenn Close and Katherine Heigl.

The Spill-Proof Travel Bowl is available for purchase at http://www.flydogpets.com/.

The travel bowl is the first of its kind and has been getting attention up and down the East Coast. The innovative design keeps water inside the bowl and virtually eliminates spillage in a moving vehicle – while providing a dog or other pet with fresh water during travel.

“Flydog has truly solved the problem of providing water in motion,” said Officer Hank Wong of a Florida-based police department. “My K-9 partner uses it daily, often during aggressive driving to emergency calls, and it’s been spill-proof every time.”

The bowl has multiple uses and is adjustable for any size pet to meet comfort needs during travel. Its design lets it securely suspend from a headrest in cars and other vehicles. It can also be attached to pet dividers in the cargo area of a wagon or SUV, and it can be used in all sizes of dog crates and kennels. When used outdoors attached to a fence or in an outdoor pen, the adjustable shaft keeps the water bowl off the ground at a comfortable height for any dog -- and away from insects. Constructed of material approved by the FDA, the travel bowl is dishwasher safe and its two-piece bowl design makes for easy cleaning. It can also stand alone as the pet water bowl in the home, providing some insurance to protect floor surfaces.

“A happy dog can be one of the best traveling companions. Our goal was to develop a no-nonsense solution for pet owners that would keep fresh water available for a dog on-the-go. We’ve done so with immediate availability of the Spill-Proof Travel Bowl,” said Steve Wilson, president of Flydog. “In addition, we’re excited to be a part of such an esteemed L.A.-based swag program. We believe our bowl is the best solution for travel and we hope our customers and the celebrities agree.”
