Roo
Online relief veterinarian platform
Roo, a San Francisco- and Houston-based startup, has launched an online platform connecting veterinary professionals to veterinary hospitals. The service enables hospitals to fulfill short-term personnel needs while allowing high-quality professionals to easily secure freelance work. Using the Roo platform, veterinary hospitals can post shifts in real time, allowing doctors to plan vacations or even call in sick. Relief veterinarians can fill these shifts according to their own availability, skills and preferences. For more information, visit roo.vet.

The Empower IQ offers both haptic and visual feedback that alerts the user when treatment speed should be adjusted.

UnderDog Pet Products
Orthopedic pet bed
The UnderDog Orthopedic Pet Bed brings ROHO Dry Flotation Technology for therapeutic rest from the human health market to pets. The UnderDog bed reduces painful pressure points through even distribution of weight and improves the pet's circulation. This helps to ensure a comfortable rest, increased energy and faster recovery after training, injury or play. The bed has experienced quick acceptance from veterinarians for postsurgical patients, canine athletes and geriatric pets.
The Company of Animals
Anti-pulling harness
The Halti No-Pull Harness is designed to provide the best possible result for those whose dogs are prone to pulling on the leash. The unique design of the Harness includes a stop-pull lifting feature connected at the back and, in cases of stronger-pulling dogs, an optional front chest attachment that provides even more control and stability when used with a dual-clip leash. Plush underarm and chest panel padding help keep dogs comfortable.
