Pet products are winners on new BBC1 TV programme

 

Innovative UK pet products from Pet Rebellion and Henry Wag have been judged winners on a new day-time BBC1 TV series called ‘The Customer Is Always Right’...

 

The show, presented by Lucy Alexander of 'Houses Under The Hammer' fame, has featured several pet products, including the Car Seat Carpet from Pet Rebellion and the Noodle Glove Dog Drying Towel from Henry Wag.

 

In each show some of Britain’s best entrepreneurs are seen putting their precious products to the customer test. Customers unbox, test and score the products to find a winner of each show.

 

Pet Rebellion sales director Tommy Weedon said: “We filmed here at our HQ in Pewsey and I then flew up to Glasgow to film in the studios. It’s a great new series with a Gogglebox/Dragons Den theme on innovative products.”

 

Tommy and the company’s Car Seat Carpet was featured in the show’s 11th episode, which was aired on BBC 1 on Bank Holiday Monday.

 

 

Meanwhile, the Henry Wag Noodle Glove Dog Drying Towel was presented by Grant Rogers, managing director of 3P Enterprise  last Friday.

 

The Henry Wag Noodle Dog Towel was created by Grant, to overcome the wet and dirt which is a feature of rural dog ownership. The highly absorbent microfibre towel features gloved ends for greater control of the dog and the towel during drying.

 

During the TV show, the product was tested for use on dogs and humans, in a range of real life scenarios, and judged for price, innovation, design and usability.

 

During the making of the show the TV film crew visited Grant at his home in the beautiful Wye Valley to understand the story behind the creation of the product.

 

“Living in the country presents its own challenges for dog owners. Dirt and water are a fact of life and can be a barrier to regular exercise,” commented Grant.“ I set out to create a range of products to remove these barriers so enabling regular exercise for dogs and owners and the building of closer relationships.”

 

If you missed the programmes you can now view both of them on BBC iplayer.
