Our employees don’t just build our brands, they trust them with their own fur babies! Here’s how Julia Fennell, our Content Lead, found the perfect solution for Motley and Halen. “My rescue mutt, Motley, has always had a stomach of steel. But my purebred golden, Halen, is the complete opposite. Her tummy is very sensitive. For a while, I tried countless foods hoping to find one that worked, but everything made her sick. Eventually, I discovered she has a protein allergy to chicken. When I started at Ethos, I decided to try the Natural Balance Limited Ingredient line and it quite literally saved her stomach (and my sanity). Now I won’t feed them anything else! Best of all, Motley loves it too. They both celebrate with post-meal zoomies every time!” – Julia Fennell, Content Lead Thank you, Julia, for trusting Ethos Pet Brands with Motley and Halen!
