(Hendersonville, TN) December 9, 2014 – Tuggo Dog Toy, LLC (www.tuggodogtoy.com) today officially announced its launch into the Pet Industry.   The Tuggo™ is a patented, water-weighted tug dog toy.  The brand was soft- launched at Global Pet Expo 2014 and received critical acclaim by winning a place in the much coveted Becker’s Best New Pet Products. Tuggo is the brainchild of Adam Harrington of Hendersonville, TN. Harrington got the idea after seeing his Boxer named Hailey playing with a heavy bowling ball in his front yard. He knew that shipping bowling balls would be a problem due to the weight. By using a tough, hard and hollow plastic ball and letting the customer add the water and thus the weight, the Tuggo was born.

“Pet owners are pressed for time,” said Harrington. “Tuggo provides a way for a dog to play tug-o-war by itself or with another dog. This provides dogs with entertainment, exercise and mental stimulation.”

Harrington has had a hard time keeping up with demand. Tuggo appeared on the Today Show earlier this year and he sold thousands of units in a matter of minutes. Tuggo has also received a Family Choice Award and most recently a Pet Business Industry Recognition Award.

The Tuggo is available in two sizes (10’ and 7’ diameter) and three colors (red, blue and green).  A shipper display with a 10” motion activated LCD screen demonstrating the product is now available which holds 16- 10” Tuggos and 36- 7” Tuggos. The Tuggo is available for sale on the company’s website and at hundreds of pet dealers nationwide. Special promotions are now being offered to new dealers.
