i4C Innovations Inc a wholly owned subsidiary of Intersections Inc. (INTX) announced at the National American Veterinary Community (NAVC) Conference, an impressive roster of veterinarians and pet wellness experts who will be contributing exclusive content to VOYCE the unprecedented wearable band and wellness experience for dogs and their pet parents.

VOYCE which has received accolades from press, technology and veterinary communities is now officially available for order at mydogsvoyce.com and will begin shipping in March. VOYCE will help pet parents, caregivers and veterinarians understand their dogs and pet patients like never before by providing objective data previously very difficult to obtain and exclusive educational information.

Named one of the year's hottest new technology innovations by leading media outlets, VOYCE is a highly sophisticated wearable health monitor coupled with a powerful member portal that provides 360-degree insight into a dog's well being. VOYCE provides key vital sign data and gives vets and pet parents additional information on which to base care giving and treatment plans.

"Consider all the questions you want to ask your dog like 'How are you feeling?', 'How do we teach you not to jump on everyone that comes to the door?' or 'How did you sleep?'," said Jeff Noce, President, i4C Innovations and pet parent to English Mastiff "Scout." "Now with technological and educational insights from VOYCE, members will have the tools and resources from top experts in the field at their fingertips to become more informed pet parents."

The VOYCE Experience includes a member portal with veterinary approved content provided by LifeLearn, an award-winning educational publisher and interactive media company established within the vet and pet-related industries as well as other expert members of the vet community. LifeLearn was recently honoured for its cutting edge technology achievements at the 2015 Consumer Electronics Show ("CES") as the winner in the pet health category at the "Everyday Health Awards." Together with VOYCE, which was named "Best of CES 2014" by leading tech media, the partnership delivers a robust content offering that provides pet parents with member-only access to exclusive educational articles, tips and vital information tailored to their dog that works hand in hand with the health and wellness band.

"The team of experts that we have assembled for the VOYCE Member Portal represent all areas of dog health and wellness, including cardiology and psychology, dentistry and pain management, world renowned trainers, rehabilitation, poison control and nutrition, just to name a few. With their expertise, articles and advice, VOYCE is uniquely positioned to be the most comprehensive partner for vets and pet parents providing the best care possible for dogs," said Noce. "Our goal is to provide pet parents and their caregivers with objective wellness indicators, insights and education to empower them to enable their dog's to have the most fulfilling life possible."

VOYCE expert contributors include Dr. Tim Hunt, the 2014 winner of the American Veterinary Medical Foundation's "Favorite Veterinarian" honor, who will be taking VOYCE to Alaska this March when he participates in the Iditarod. "I am honored to be working with the team at VOYCE, not only to help bring this cutting edge technology to the veterinary world to improve the efficiency and quality of care in our practices, but to also see the benefits first-hand through my training for the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race," said Dr. Tim Hunt. "I will be utilising VOYCE on my dogs as we train in Alaska leading up to the big race in March," he added.
