Listen to this article

K9 Fit Club is bringing innovative and charitable fitness opportunities to the Veterinary Meeting & Expo (VMX), formerly known as the North American Veterinary Conference (NAVC). Held February 3-7, 2018, at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida, the VMX presents top-tier continuing education from world-renowned presenters, unparalleled professional development and networking, diverse exhibits, and exhilarating events.

“At K9 Fit Club, we strongly believe the health of both owner and pet go hand in hand,” said Tricia Montgomery, founder and CEO of K9 Fit Club. “Our motto is: Better You. Better Dog. Better Life. A simple solution to combating the many health issues both people and pets face today is by combining proper nutrition and regular exercise.”

During the VMX four-day event, K9 Fit Club will be exhibiting at booth 3613 and in the Startup Circle inside the Innovation & Technology Center, booth ITC13X. At booth 3613, K9 Fit Club will be selling licenses at a special show price: 20 percent of Basic K9 Fit Club licensing, $2,500 (normally $3,000). There will be fitness demos as well as kissing booth, where attendees can smooch Thea the pooch in order to help raise money for the K9 Fit Club Foundation (501c3). A kiss with Thea will donate $5 to the foundation, which will subsidize military veterans suffering from PTSD and other less fortunate men and women who want to become K9 Fit Club trainers.

At the Startup Circle, booth ITC13, K9 Fit Club will be introducing K9 Fit 2 Go, the very first human/canine fitness application! K9 Fit 2 Go allows for people and their dogs to get access to the best instructors and best classes K9 Fit Club has to offer, no matter where they live, at any time, no matter how busy their schedules are. K9 Fit 2 Go will allow for people to download or stream K9 Fit Club classes, further bringing people into existing licensees.

K9 Fit 2 Go will have a strategic advantage: extend the boutique studio by live streaming its classes. Users can enjoy their full suite of more than 20 programs. Multi-platform will allow pet owners to workout with their friends and inviting up to 3, so you can work out together. Official distribution will take place April/May 2018. Pre-sale with special pricing will be available at the VMX show.

In addition to exhibiting at the show, K9 Fit Club is excited to sponsor the 5K Fun(d) Run/Walk benefiting the World Small Animal Veterinary Association (WSAVA) Foundation on February 4. Participants can bring their pet or run with an adoptable shelter dog. New for 2018, local Orlando pet owners and their veterinary teams are also invited to join. Master K9 Fit Club trainers will be providing stretching, warm-ups, entertainment and enthusiasm to kick-off the run!

The 5K Fun(d) Run won’t be the only time to get your blood flowing during this highly anticipated show. Expo-goers can participate in more workout fun thanks to K9 Fit Club. They will be providing four days of demos at the NAVC Central, where attendees can join together and sample K9 Fit Club classes firsthand. This is a great opportunity to see what the nation’s pioneer and leader in human/canine fitness is all about.

“We are very excited and proud to bring our special licensing opportunities to the Veterinary Meeting & Expo as well as introduce K9 Fit 2 Go for the very first time with attendees,” Montgomery said. “To top it off, we are honored to sponsor the Fun(d) Run/Walk and look forward to hosting the warm-up before the big run begins. We have much to look forward to at the 2018 show!”
