I'm not sure if it's the saturated adult health and fitness industry or the booming pet products trend, but something has encouraged the creation and launch of Fortifido, bottled vitamin water for dogs. Fortifido touts benefits like healthier bones, skin, and joints, (plus of course better breath) and comes in several different flavors including spearmint, peanut butter, and parsley (parsley???).
When it comes to water for dogs of course there's some controversy over bottled water versus plain old-fashioned tap water, but even if bottled dog water is something you would buy I think everybody can see it's mostly just a marketing scheme to make money. Despite that, though, I'll admit that it might be fun when I'm out exercising to whip out both a water bottle just for me and another one for my dog...
She'll be trying "parsley" first (and probably just once!).

My dog hates those doggy mints, and I hate that they're so expensive, so I will definitely be trying the spearmint water for fresh breath. And, as much as I love giving my dog treats, they're not good for him. I'd much rather give him peanut butter flavored water as a treat. Also, I think it's unfair to call this product a scheme, unless you think it purports to do something it doesn't. The reason any company makes a product is to make a profit.
