DALLAS, Nov. 14, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- GoBone Inc.,
maker of smart, connected devices for pets and their people,
announces that its flagship product, GoBone, the world's first
app-enabled smart bone for dogs, has been included on Oprah's
Favorite Things List 2017. The revolutionary dog toy joins the
ranks of handpicked gift ideas that make up O, the Oprah
Magazine's highly anticipated annual holiday wish list, which
can be found in the December issue—on newsstands now. GoBone, which
is already available for purchase on Amazon, will also be included
in the online megastore's dedicated Oprah's Favorite Things
storefront, amazon.com/oprah.
"Give a dog a better bone. The GoBone automatically keeps a pup
rolling around, chasing, and being chased, all at the touch of an
app. This is at the top of Sadie's wish list," Oprah says in
the December issue of O, The Oprah Magazine.
Designed with both pet parents and their beloved pups in mind,
GoBone automatically keeps dogs active and engaged when their
owners are busy, and opens up a whole new world of play when
they're together. In Auto Play mode, GoBone flips, zips, and zooms
around the floor on its own, enticing a dog to race around the
house in joyful pursuit. Customized for a pup's age, weight, breed,
and style of play, GoBone can be chased, chewed, tossed, and even
stuffed with treats, and it's equipped with a rechargeable battery
to deliver up to eight hours of play in Auto Play mode. When owner
and dog want to enjoy playtime together, GoBone connects to a
smartphone via the free GoBone App, transforming it into a
remote-controlled gaming device that allows for up to 30 minutes of
continuous fun on a single battery charge.
"I created GoBone to give my dog, Rufus, opportunities for
exercise and enjoyment even when I'm busy. I feel better knowing
Rufus is entertained no matter what's going on in my life, and I
love having new ways to bond and interact with him when we play,"
explained Santiago Gutierrez,
GoBone's CEO and founder. "We are honored that Oprah noticed our
product and felt it deserved a place on this year's list of her
favorite things, and look forward to seeing GoBone spread joy to
many more pet parents and dogs this holiday season and beyond."
Ms. Winfrey has been sharing her Favorite Things with fans for
over 20 years, and each year the list has gotten bigger and better
while always promising to be chock-full of ingenious new products
and old favorites for the young, the elderly, and the furry. The
long-standing tradition is often hailed as the official start to
the holidays.
GoBone is available to purchase for $199 via mygobone.com and all products
listed in O, the Oprah Magazine's holiday gift guide
are also available for purchase through Amazon's dedicated Oprah's
Favorite Things storefront: amazon.com/oprah.
To give hardworking pet parents and their dogs an extra dose of
holiday cheer, GoBone Inc. is giving away GoBones to 20 lucky
winners as part of the O, The Oprah
Magazine 12-Day Give-O-Way Sweepstakes. Details
