DOG POTTY TRAINING MADE EASY

ATLANTA – July 23, 2007

There are over 70 million dogs in America but many unnecessarily end up in animal shelters, due to their lack of potty training. In fact, The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) ranks potty training as the number one complaint on their Behavior Helpline.

Tell Bell ^TM is a new specialized dog training device that permits a dog to “tell” his owner when he needs to go outside to the restroom (potty)! This is so much better than guessing, cleaning up accidents, having marked doors from scratching or having a dog bark. Mary Oakes, President and Founder of Kelston Products, LLC spent over two years developing and testing the product. It is the first dog product for Kelston Products, LLC of Alpharetta, Georgia.

Tell Bell ^TM was born out of necessity. Following years of pleading from their children, Mary and her husband, Merrill, finally agreed to add a dog to their household. Mary had read and knew people who had used hanging bells to potty train their dogs, and decided to use bells. Additionally, it has been recommended for years by professional dog trainers.

But Mary did not want the bells hanging on the door knob; they were not attractive, the bells would ring every time the door was used, and the dog would mark the door trying to ring the bells. She went to several large pet stores and found nothing, so Mary decided to get a call bell. The problem was that the plunger at the top of the bell was not large enough, resulting in their dog missing the plunger. In addition, the call bell needed to have a smaller radius, so it could sit out of the way by the door. Mary’s husband redistributed the weight and made a larger plunger using thick plastic. In just a few days their dog was ringing the bell.

Mary knew other dog owners could benefit and love the product. While juggling her duties as mom and wife, Mary managed to come up with the design, test and re-test Tell Bell ^TM and now her product is patent pending. It took Mary over 2 years, which she says “it took more time than I thought to design and manufacture Tell Bell ^TM and to perfect the methodology.” Now she has dog trainers recommending Tell Bell ^TM because owners are more successful with the device that is only heard when the dog needs to go outside to potty, and the easy to follow steps reinforce what trainers are stating. Mary refuses to take all the credit, because her children and husband have been instrumental in assisting her.

The product comes in a package containing 2 Tell Bells, 1 DVD and 1 training manual. Tell Bell ^TM is the total package with a device and methodology. It doesn’t have any electronic features so it is safe. People, who have tried it love it more than hanging bells on the door, because it is attractive, comes with a complete dog training manual; including how to train your dog to wait by the bell when you can’t come immediately. Also it is only heard when a dog needs to go outside.

Tell Bell ^TM is available through Amazon.com, various local pet stores, dog trainers and veterinarians. For trade inquiries, contact Kelston Products LLC at 877-DOG-TELL or Customer Service at their website www.TellBell.com.
