About 250 Veterinary Clinics and close to 2000 dogs are now trying Oximunol(TM)
Chewable Tablets, a unique new product for dogs from Avivagen Animal Health
("Avivagen") that improves gastrointestinal health as well as coat quality and
decreases shedding. 


"This is a very significant accomplishment in just over three months when you
consider that we launched our first commercial product in November," comments
Dave Hankinson, CEO of Avivagen. "We are seeing growth as clinics move from
trial product to restocking orders," Hankinson confirms. 


In addition to strong trial support from veterinary clinics, a new 50-Day
Challenge was recently launched on the Avivagen website at www.avivagen.com to
help accelerate the product introduction to consumers. The challenge allows any
dog owner to sign up for a free trial bottle of 50 Oximunol(TM) Chewable
Tablets. Participants are asked to fill out a short questionnaire before and at
the end of the 50 day trial to allow Avivagen to monitor the results. 


"We encourage dog owners to try the product because in most dogs, the results
speak for themselves," Hankinson says. "The beauty of Oximunol(TM) Chewables is
that when owners see the benefits, they want their dog to stay on the product.
These pet parents then visit their veterinarian to obtain additional supplies of
Oximunol(TM) Chewable Tablets. This is starting to translate into sales growth
for Avivagen."


Other significant milestones in the first three months of operation include
launching an Avivagen blog as well as establishing a strong presence on Facebook
(http://www.facebook.com/pages/Avivagen-Animal-Health/173599769320245) and
Twitter (@avivagen). Twitter followers already total more than 900. 


Guest blogger for Avivagen Animal Health, David Bannister, is one of those who
discovered the real benefits through his own experience with the product. "First
of all, I want to state up front that I have written much of the copy that
Avivagen uses in their material about Oximunol(TM) Chewable Tablets because I
work as a copy writer for their agency," Bannister explains. "I'm as skeptical
as the average consumer about new product claims, and likely even more so.


"My wife, Anne and I have a 10-year-old chocolate Lab named Holly, who is a
shedding machine. Anne would have to Swiffer around the edges of our hardwood
floors every two days to keep on top of the accumulating fur that roamed around
the house like tumbleweeds!


"By the time Holly was on Oximunol(TM) Chewable Tablets two weeks, we were
already seeing a reduction in the amount of hair accumulating on the floor and
other surfaces. At 50 days, the reduction in shedding is very significant...
We're guessing it's only about 1/4 of the amount Holly used to shed. Anne no
longer feels compelled to Swiffer every couple of days. Holly's coat looks shiny
and feels softer as well.


"I am now fully convinced that dog owners who experience substantial shedding
from their pets will find Oximunol(TM) Chewable Tablets a great relief. We plan
to keep Holly on it and I encourage other dog owners to try it and see the
results for themselves," Bannister adds.


"All the early signals for Avivagen and Oximunol(TM) Chewable Tablets are
positive," comments Hankinson. "We are on track and I am very satisfied with the
progress we have made in the short time since we launched." 


"Stay tuned. We are planning to give our stakeholders and shareholders more
frequent and regular updates in this acceleration phase," Hankinson concludes.
