American Institute of Baking
The American Institute of Baking is a not-for-profit corporation, founded by the North American wholesale and retail baking industries in 1919 as a technology transfer center for bakers and food processors. The original mission of the organization was to "put science to work for the baker," and that basic theme is still central to all of the programs, products, and services provided by AIB to baking and general food production industries worldwide.
Since 2003, Natura Pet Products' facilities have been rated as "Superior" by the AIB Annual Audit.

Urban Tails - Trainer to the Stars
Simply stated, dog training is about building a relationship. The stronger the relationship, the more responsive your pet will be. Training is on-going and never ends. The educational experience is a life long process which begins from the moment we are born...the same is true for your dog. Sit, Come, Down and Stay are commands to be used everyday, whether before meals or on daily walks. These commands strengthen the LEADER-FOLLOWER RELATIONSHIP, which is our primary objective. When you speak, your dog will listen and respond accordingly, not when "he feels like it" or "only when I have a treat," but every single time!
