Dr. Victoria Ochoa, Karen Bostick & Tinks, Dr. Sue Ettinger will appear in PetsPage Documentary

Boise, Idaho (PRWEB) November 14, 2013 -- Karen Bostick, Creator and CEO of PetsPage.com recently appeared as a guest on Pet World Insider Radio (click the link to listen to the interview) with host Robert Semrow, the world renowned pet photographer known to the public as The Pawtographer. In the segment, Bostick discusses Tinks’ Story and how a veterinary specialist saved the adorable little maltipoo’s life and the social pet community, PetsPage.com, that Bostick created to share Tinks’ Story.

Less than two weeks into our crowdfunding campaign, we have received hundreds of donations. It is gratifying to see so much love for Tinks and support for our message.

Pet World Insider Radio is distributed through the EMB Network, Environmental Media Broadcasting Network and on multiple channels online.

According to Bostick, the timing of her Pet World Insider Radio guest appearance is perfect. She launched on November 1, PetsPage.com’s Pet Owner Awareness crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo.com. The purpose of the PetsPage crowdfunding campaign is to seek support for a national campaign aimed to educate pet owners and the community on the importance of veterinary specialty medicine in saving pets’ lives. PetsPage.com’s awareness campaign includes producing and distributing an educational documentary that will air on public television stations throughout the United States and include a 1 minute public service announcement to be broadcast on Animal Planet.

The documentary focuses on Tinks’ Story (see video included with this press release) and Bostick’s mission of increasing pet owner awareness of all things available in veterinary care for our pets today. The documentary will be produced by Outlook Television, a leader in the production of public television programming.

Outlook Television contacted Bostick about sharing Tinks’ Story and her mission with over 60 million public television viewers across the USA, believing her message and Tinks’ Story was a compelling human interest feature. The documentary will air for a full year in 2014 on public television stations across the USA and will include a 1 minute public service announcement that will air on Animal Planet in various regional networks throughout the country.

In addition to Karen Bostick and Tinks, the documentary will feature some of the most respected board certified veterinary specialists in the country, including Dr. Sue Ettinger, DVM, DACVIM (veterinary oncology) “Dr. Sue Cancer Vet,” one of the world’s leading pet cancer specialists who has recently proposed a set of national pet cancer guidelines aimed at reducing the number of cancer related pet deaths, Dr. Victoria Ochoa, DVM, MS, DACVIM, a board certified veterinary internist, who was Tinks’ treating veterinary specialist, Dr. Carrie Breaux, DVM, MVSC, DACVO, a veterinary ophthalmologist, and Dr. Andrew Gendler, DVM, DACVR, a veterinary radiologist.

Bostick is seeking to raise a minimum of $30,000 during the 30 day Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign through small donations from Tinks’ fans among her 350,000 plus social media followers and is also seeking support from the veterinary specialty industry and its supporters. Bostick hopes at least 3000 “We Love Tinks” fans will contribute a minimum of $10 to help reach the $30,000 goal to help cover the costs of the documentary. Bostick is also seeking funds from the veterinary specialty industry as well with hopes that any additional funds raised will allow her to distribute the Public Service Announcement throughout local and regional television networks to aid her efforts in creating awareness of vet specialists.

Various perks are offered as thank you for donations, including discounts at Tinks’ Shop and I Love Tinks’ T-Shirts and special sponsorship opportunities for larger donations. Early supporters are encouraged to reach out now for unique sponsorship opportunities that will show their support throughout the crowdfunding campaign.

“I am so excited about sharing Tinks’ Story and my pet health advocacy mission on the importance of being your pet’s advocate by becoming aware of all the options in veterinary care in a public television documentary to over 60 million viewers. Less than two weeks into our crowdfunding campaign, we have received hundreds of donations. It is gratifying to see so much love for Tinks and support for our message. Thank you to everybody. We love you all. I’m confident that with Tinks Fans’ and veterinary industry support I’ll be able to make this dream a reality.” said Bostick.

Tinks’ Story and Karen’s mission has struck a chord with pet lovers around the world.
