Canadian pet nutrition company partners with Pet Planet Natural Pet Grocer to offer pet guardians with local food choices.

ELMIRA, ON /CNW/ – Nutram Pet Products, a Canadian Pet Nutrition company, is thrilled to announce its partnership with Pet Planet to expand offering Canadian-made pet food to 48 stores across Western Canada.

“We’re proud to begin offering our recipes through Pet Planet retail stores,” said Rob Viliani, VP Sales and General Manager, Nutram Pet Products. “This partnership embodies our support of Canadians supporting Canadians supporting Canadians.”

The pet food brand has been producing dog and cat recipes since its humble beginnings in 1993. Now based out of a small farming community west of Toronto, Elmira, Ontario is home to the privately-owned production facility for Nutram.

Nutram offers all-natural recipes for both dogs and cats, catered to their specific wellness needs. Offering natural solutions for skin, coat or stomach sensitivities, weight control, cognitive development in young pets, and more. Each recipe bolsters holistic benefits, naturally achieved through the high-quality ingredients it contains.

For thirty years, Nutram has made a commitment to offer their pet food recipes in Canadian-owned pet specialty retail stores across Canada.

“It’s extremely important for us to support other Canadian-owned businesses,” Viliani said. “With the quality of Canadian ingredients at our fingertips, backed by decades of knowledge of pet nutrition, we feel a partnership with a strong Canadian pet specialty chain, such as Pet Planet, is a great opportunity to bring Canadian products to pet guardians.”

Pet Planet hand selected Nutram as part of their exclusive food offerings available to their pet guardians based on a rigorous review process, ensuring each recipe met the nutrition quality and food safety standards they have in place, granting Nutram a Certificate of Trust.

“Launching a new food in our stores is never an easy process,” Laura Leah English, Co-Founder and CEO at Pet Planet Group said. “For us at Pet Planet, it takes time to find the right fit for our Guardians and the right brand that truly understands the mission, vision, and values of Pet Planet. We believe we have found a great partner in Nutram in all these areas.”

As part of the review process, Nutram shared their exemplary quality standards were a result of their British Retail Consortium Global Safety (BRC) quality assurance program, recognizing three components of food safety: quality nutrition, food safety, and legality of marketing claims.

“Nutram pet food is high quality,” said English. “The choice to partner with them complements our shared goal of delivering pets with the best nutrition available, all while supporting local.”

Through the new partnership, Pet Planet will be offering Nutram recipes in their 48 stores across Western Canada, including Calgary, Edmonton, Saskatoon, and more.

Aquariums can be a great addition to any home, providing a calming environment and a unique focal point. However, getting started with an aquarium can quickly become an expensive endeavor. If you’re on a strict budget but still want to enjoy the benefits of an aquarium, there are still plenty of affordable options available to you.

When it comes to finding the best fish for pets on a budget, it’s important to consider a few key factors. First, you’ll want to look for fish that are hardy and easy to care for, as they’ll be less likely to require expensive equipment or specialized care. You’ll also want to consider the cost of the fish themselves, as well as any necessary supplies and equipment.

One of the best places to find affordable aquarium supplies and fish is your local pet store. Many pet stores offer a wide selection of fish at varying price points, as well as affordable aquarium kits that include all the necessary equipment to get you started. Be sure to ask the staff for recommendations on hardy, low-maintenance fish that are well-suited to beginner aquarium owners.

Another option is to look online for aquarium supplies and fish. Many online retailers offer competitive pricing and a wider selection than you might find at your local store. However, be sure to factor in the cost of shipping and handling when making your purchase.

When it comes to selecting the best fish for your budget aquarium, there are several species that are particularly well-suited to low-maintenance setups. Some good options include:

• Betta fish: These colorful fish are known for their hardiness and ability to thrive in small spaces.
• Goldfish: While often associated with outdoor ponds, goldfish can also do well in indoor aquariums with proper care.
• Guppies: These small, lively fish are easy to care for and come in a variety of colors and patterns.
• Tetras: These peaceful fish are a popular choice for community aquariums and come in a range of colors and sizes.

Ultimately, the key to finding the best fish for pets on a budget is to do your research, shop around for the best deals, and choose hardy, low-maintenance species that are well-suited to your aquarium setup. With a little planning and effort, you can enjoy all the benefits of an aquarium without breaking the bank.

Here are a few suggestions for affordable stores that offer aquarium equipment and fish:

1. Petco: Petco offers a wide range of affordable aquarium supplies, including starter kits, filters, heaters, and lighting. They also carry a variety of affordable fish species.
2. Chewy: Chewy offers a large selection of aquarium supplies at competitive prices, including filters, heaters, and decorations. They also have a variety of affordable fish species available.
3. Amazon: Amazon offers a wide range of aquarium supplies and equipment at competitive prices, including filters, heaters, and lighting. They also have a large selection of affordable fish species available for purchase.

Brightline West’s request for $3.75 billion in federal funding for its Las Vegas to Southern California high-speed rail project has received support from a group of bipartisan elected officials from Nevada and California.

The funding, which would cover about one-third of the total project cost, would come from the Federal-State Partnership for Intercity Passenger Rail Grant Program.

Brightline West has already secured lease agreements for a station site on Las Vegas Boulevard and an agreement with the California highway department for using the I-15 right-of-way.

If the funding is secured, construction could begin this year, with high-speed trains operating by the end of the decade.
