Hello Everyone,
Hope the summer is treating everyone great and no one is over heating. I just wanted to let everyone know that I heard you all loud and clear and have removed the Upsellit simulated chat from the website. It was a tough call being that it was working at saving sales but I agree that it looked very tacky and didn’t give the professional appearance that I wanted with the site. I appreciate all of your support and willingness to promote the PUPS website.
So here’s a question: What do you as affiliates want to see from PUPS? What can we do to take the affiliate program to the next level, or to the level that it was when the site started with Avantlink several years ago? I look forward to your responses and help in making this the best pet supply affiliate program on the web.
Keep checking back and watch the excitement unfold!
Jeff
Welcome to the Paws Up Pet Supply merchant blog!
I would like to take this opportunity to let you know that we at Paws Up Pet Supply are planning a lot of stuff that is going to happen in the next six months or so. Ever since we took over the site in November 2007, we have been on a mission to reinvigorate the the site and the affiliate program. We are beginning to see so light at the end of the tunnel. As you may know, we have just recently launched our NEW redesigned website at the end of May. We are in the process of increasing our product offerings to include such items as Pet food, Eco-friendly pet products and Equine products. All of these are sure to help raise the total sales price and conversion rates.
Our newest product is Pet Quenchers. This product is essentially bottled water for your pet. The company is owned and operated by a licensed Veterinarian. The water is filtered and made in Missouri. This product is perfect for every pet owner but will be mainly used by dog owners. This is perfect to take on hiking trips and when traveling. There’s no need to carry a bowl and a container of water. Pet Quenchers is a bowl with water in one. The container is resealable so it can be used for more than one use. We just made a trip from Denver to Kansas City and back and this product worked great for our pup and I’m sure it will work great for your customers as well.
We are dedicated to adding some of the best items in the industry for you and your pets. Keep checking back and watch the excitement unfold!
Thanks
Jeff Thurston

Jetboil stoves are a great stove for cooking a great chilli or stew in a heart beat. The Jetboil just plain rocks with 4500 BTUs of horse rocking power that weighs only 15oz. Boiling water is ready in just two minutes due to a number of contributing design features but most notably due to the FluxRing heat exchanger built into the bottom of the cooking cup that effectively contains heat underneath the cooking surface. Go on try it, you will be part of the cool Jetboil crowd.
It’s that time of year to get in shape before the summer really kicks in. Now you have no excuses with the Spring into action sale from Altrec with New Balance running shoes. http://www.altrec.com/new-balance/search.htm.
Altrec is now on Facebook where you can get the latest reviews, video and photos, just us and let us know what you think?
