Hownd: Super ethical?

Hownd: Super ethical?

If you haven’t heard of Hownd then we’d like to introduce you. In our last post we talked about their founding of ‘take your dog to work day’ where they raise money for a variety of animal charities, whilst showing how having pets in the office can boost morale. If you’d like to know more about this check it out here!

When Hownd began it was always about ethics before profits. They consider how the impact owning pets has on our environment and how this affects our animals' health. This means that Hownd pride themselves on being cruelty free, using only natural ingredients and making sure they’re planet friendly. This also led them to be on the trend of plant powered super food for those who want to have their pets on a vegan diet.

In this post we’re going to look at some of our favourite products and what makes them align with the super ethical labelling these guys have.

Hemp Wellness Treats

These treats are award winning and there's many reasons why our pets love them. 100% natural ingredients and plant based means no nasties are being fed to your dog and this also makes them gluten free and hypoallergenic. Hemp is the game changer and why this runs through the whole line. It’s a complete source of protein and full of healthy fats like Omega 3, 6 & 9. Known to have many health benefits, hemp is also high in many important minerals.

The Hero Bowl

Not only are Hownd looking after the planet with the products they make, but the health of our pets is always put first. It’s clear that the watering area for dogs can be full of not so nice bacteria (often a huge factor as to why many owners won’t let their pet drink from communal or public dog bowls!) Hownd have produced a dish that helps to protect our pets from MRSA, feline coronavirus, E.coli and influenza H1N1. It’s easier to clean and more functional than the normal stainless steel or ceramic bowls we might use, but it’s the 99.99% protection against bacteria that makes this dish no.1!

They all have their own long lasting scents but crucially are pH balanced, contain no parabens, alcohol or sls.
