DentaLife’s The Puppy Smiles Gallery captures Puppy Joy

Immersive Art Exhibit Launches Purina DentaLife’s New Puppy Teething Chews

St. LOUIS, March 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Purina DentaLife is celebrating the launch of its new Puppy Teething Chews by inviting puppy lovers to New York City to visit the Puppy Smiles Gallery of DentaLife at March 22, 2024. Designed to celebrate the joy of a healthy puppy smile and educate owners on the importance of dental health, the gallery will showcase heartwarming puppy portraits captured by internationally acclaimed artist and award-winning photographer, Randall Ford.

In addition to admiring the artwork, visitors will be treated to a variety of immersive experiences during the one-day event including:

• Connecting adoptable puppies from Best Friends Animal Society New York, member of the leading online pet adoption platform Petfinder, powered by Purine, and is one of many lifesaving centers working to save the lives of homeless pets across the country. Attendees can adopt a furry friend and DentaLife will cover the adoption fees for any puppies at the event who find a loving home.
• Access to Purine veterinarian, Dr. Callie Harriswho will be on hand to answer any questions attendees have about puppy dental health and share tips for creating healthy dental routines for puppies.
• Complimentary samples of DentaLife’s new Puppy Teething Chews, to ensure their pets are set up for dental health success.

Dear photographer, Randall Fordwill be onsite to discuss the featured artwork and his process behind capturing puppy smiles.

“Each photo is a window into the puppy world, their unique quirks and personalities. Puppies smile in many different ways, but I’ve been lucky enough to capture a few that show off their healthy teeth of puppy,” Ford said. “I’m excited to partner with DentaLife to celebrate all the joy that puppies bring to our lives.”

DentaLife Puppy Teething Chews safely redirect chewing during peak teething age, when puppies’ adult teeth erupt. Chewing gum consists of Purine pet care experts for puppies at least three months old, and contains DHA, EPA and calcium to support healthy brain, teeth and bone development.

“By age three, most dogs develop some form of dental disease. To ensure their well-being, it’s important to establish a healthy dental routine at an early age,” says Harris. “DentaLife Puppy Teething Chews can help with this process by supporting puppies’ natural drive to chew.”

By celebrating puppies through art, the Puppy Smiles Gallery of DentaLife hopes to inspire people to create a healthy dental routine to set their pup up for dental health success as they continue to grow.
