Let Your Tax Refund Go to the Dogs with Five Star Fido’s New Gift Service |
|
It’s tax season, and many Americans are welcoming large tax refunds. There are endless ways to spend the extra cash. Many will take the kids on vacation, or make improvements to the house. But this year, you may be surprised at how many people will choose to pamper their dogs. Five Star Fido (www.fivestarfido.com) has launched a gift service for dogs that makes it fun and convenient to pamper your dog year-round.
(PRWEB) April 11, 2005 -- If a monthly high-end gift for your dog sounds over-the-top, pay attention the next time you watch TV--you will notice an interesting trend. More and more commercials and television programs feature a cute dog or two. You can’t flip through a magazine without seeing them. Dogs are everywhere, and for good reason.
Statistics offered by the American Pet Products Manufacturers Association show that pets have been shown to lower blood pressure, reduce stress, prevent heart disease, lower health care costs, and fight depression.
With the stresses so many Americans face in every-day life, it’s no wonder that so many are turning to pets for a little R&R. The pet industry has certainly picked up on the growing trend. According to the American Pet Products Manufacturers Association, pet owners spent an estimated $34 billion on their pets in 2004, compared with just $17 billion in 1994.
What better time to reward your pooch than during tax season? After all, they greeted you faithfully all year long as you came home tired and stressed out. According to the IRS, in 2004, 126.4 million refunds were issued, with the average tax refund being about $1800 for individuals. Surely Fido deserves a reward.
Many dog lovers are going for high-end luxury items and human-grade products to pamper their furry companions. Services for dogs in particular are on the rise. We have gone from kennels and an occasional flea dip to doggie day spas, gourmet meals, and pooches traveling the world in their owners’ purse.
Five Star Fido’s subscription gift service for dogs is a new and unique service designed to pamper special dogs with a gift pack each month. From new puppies to grand-dogs, every pooch can enjoy receiving gourmet treats, plush toys, and fun personal care products each month. Not only does a Five Star Fido subscription pamper pooches, but pet parents get to spend more time with their furry children and less time searching the world for treats and toys. Dogs even get their own webpage to share with family and friends.
So, as April 15 approaches you might want to keep in mind, “It’s not always what my dog can do for me, but what I can do for my dog”.
