Based in Austin, Texas, Pet King Brands is the pioneering leader of veterinarian-recommended enzymatic pet health products that include ZYMOX Dermatology, Oratene Brushless Oral Care, ZYLAFEN and Equine Defense. The Pet King Brands portfolio encompasses a wide range of solutions addressing the antibiotic-free needs of pets, including ear health, skincare and brushless oral care products.  

For more than 25 years, Pamela Bosco has guided Pet King Brands to be a leader in pet health and wellness through products that utilize the power of its patented LP3 Enzyme System, which is designed to resolve various ear, skin and oral conditions in combination with the MD2 Enzyme System. 

The ZYMOX and Oratene lines represent true advances in the field of veterinary healthcare. Pet King Brands’ unwavering commitment to the well-being of animals is the reason they take such great pride in delivering high-quality products that are safe as well as effective. Vet recommended and vet used, PKB Animal Health, a division of Pet King Brands, Inc. has been helping veterinarians care for their patients for over 25 years. Pet King Brands’ product family also includes skin and ear care products just for cats and kittens; Equine Defense skin care products for horses and other livestock; skin care products for birds, small animals and exotics; and ZYLAFEN for all kinds of reptiles. 

“For over 25 years, we have made it our goal to provide animals with effective, safe and gentle products that are not just solutions; they’re a promise to support veterinarians and pet owners in providing care that’s both non-toxic and easy-to-follow,” said Debra Decker, Pet King Brands director of marketing. 

The month of February is Pet Dental Health Month, which was created by the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) to raise awareness about how dental health is a critical part of a pet’s overall health. It’s also widely known that poor dental care can be linked to other severe health issues as the bacteria associated with tartar buildup and periodontal disease can contribute to heart, liver and kidney problems, thus leading to shorter lifespans in dogs and cats. Therefore, it’s important to bring forth awareness to pet oral health.  

Oratene Brushless Oral Care offers superior oral protection against bad breath, plaque and periodontal disease by delivering two complete, patented enzyme systems not found in any other enzymatic oral care line. These products effectively inhibit the bacteria that cause bad breath, boost the natural oral flora, help protect against gum disease and dissolve plaque biofilm. 

“Our Oratene line offers a simple and effective solution to pet oral care,” said Debra Decker, Pet King Brands director of marketing. “Each product features a natural, multicomplex enzyme system that doesn’t require brushing to maintain oral health.”  

Oratene Water Additive features two complete enzyme systems based on 40 years of advanced enzyme technology in a flavorless concentrate to be added to fresh drinking water daily and is recommended for all pets in need of gentle, non-drying everyday oral care.  

The Breath Freshener Spray contains the same enzyme system and delivers a gentle mist to freshen any pet’s breath, especially beneficial to pets prescribed medication which may cause Xerostomia.  

Oratene Enzymatic Brushless Toothpaste Gel provides maximum enzyme contact to keep pet’s teeth and gums clean and fresh. This clear gel is pleasant tasting and may be applied with a toothbrush or a finger.  

The Brushless Oral Gel provides maximum enzyme contact for relief from serious conditions such as periodontal disease, gingivitis, stomatitis and inflamed gums and ulcerations. Oratene Oral Gel is the most potent enzyme formulation in the Oratene product line, featuring a mildly sweet, non-bitter flavor that won’t stain teeth or cause excess salivation. 

“We remain committed to the health and wellness of animals of all ages and sizes by utilizing the power of the LP3 Enzyme System, based on more than 40 years of advanced technology and expertise,” Decker said. “This allows us to lead the category in effective care without the adverse side effects.”
