A picture says a thousand words...which is why we are now offering pre-made signs that you can use in your store. Download and print the signs right from the dealer-direct page, or you can request a sign from us... and we'll print it and send it to you.Our most popular sign, "Guaranteed Tough(est)" is available in three sizes. We are also really happy to offer multiple signs that promote our new Mini Zogoflex® toys. Let your customers know that the "Mini Zogoflex is here" with a sign for the window... and don't let them forget to pick one up when they are checking out with a sign at the counter.
Hopefully you've already noticed, but we've updated the look to our newsletters. We are hoping that the new look (which is really just a refinement of our last newsletter format) is more helpful and easier to read. You'll notice that you can subscribe to three different publications. Two are for dealers only, and the third is for anyone who visits WestPawDesign.com (and is NOT intended for wholesalers and dealers):
Construction is finally winding down - and it looks great! As many of you know, in January our south walls were moved and re-placed 98 feet back. In February we were able to move into our new production area. Around that same time, the construction began on the new office space above our current office space (again- sorry for the background noise while we were on the phone with you!). Our new receiving dock has been in use for over 2 months and has been key to improving our efficiencies. It allows us to receive a shipment at the same time as FedEx is picking up all of our outbound orders. Wow that’s nice!
You can rest easy, knowing that Zogoflex toys are safe, non-toxic and free of bisphenol A (BPA).
On the 40th anniversary of Earth Day,"Today" show hosts Kathie Lee and Hoda invited three experts to show off some of the best environmentally-friendly products for you, your house and your pets.

Būmi® , the interactive dog toy, is featured in Fido Friendly Magazine's "100 Best Pet Products - 2010 Edition." While Bumi didn't come in first place, we don't mind because we know you'd much prefer the fairly priced, fun, guaranteed tough, float-able, tug-able Būmi™ over the $3.2 million dollar diamond dog collar anyway! Since Bumi's recent introduction, we've received great reviews... not only from magazines - but from our most reliable source-- our customers!

Pet Business magazine spoke with Spencer Williams, owner of West Paw Design, about the greening of the Pet Industry in the recent "Last Word" article. In just three quick questions, Spencer was able to discuss the trends that are driving more and more stores to carry "green" pet toys and beds. With more manufacturers beginning to jump on the "green bandwagon" it is getting difficult to know what is authentically green.
