  • 💡 What if your dog’s collar could save their life? Pet Madness Inc was founded from two unforgettable experiences: Spartacus, a dog whose seizures went unnoticed until it was too late, and a lost dog whose name tag couldn’t be read. These moments inspired smarter solutions for pet safety, identification, and care. The Matrix Smart Collar combines GPS tracking, a virtual name tag, and real-time health monitoring in one sleek, modular design. Spartacus’s name now lives on in the Sparty Ecosystem, a groundbreaking network designed to prevent tragedies, improve pet safety, and make care more accessible for all pets. 🔗 Click to learn more: https://bit.ly/42vtDiY

  • What happens when three rescue dogs take over the sofa? 🛋️ That’s the situation Carl and Kathleen Baker faced—stacking kitchen chairs on the cushions just to keep the dogs off. With nowhere left to sit, Carl put his engineering skills to work. The result was the first DoggOffIt prototype, a simple but effective solution that quickly proved its value! DoggOffIt creates smart, stylish solutions that protect furniture and make life easier for pets and their people. Their patented no-sit pet protector was tested in real homes with real pets for durability, ease, and elegance.
