Boise, Idaho.

Bostick’s mission comes as the result of a very personal and almost tragic situation. Four years ago, her beloved little dog, Tinks almost died from an auto-immune disease. Tinks was nearing death and it wasn't until Bostick learned about Veterinary Specialists, that Tinks' life could be saved. The daughter of a veterinarian herself, even Bostick did not know about Vet Specialists. Ever since, she feels it is her job to educate pet owners on how to become their pet’s best advocate when it comes to the health of their beloved family pets.
PetsPage.com launched on July 15, 2013 and Bostick has been very successful in getting her message out through her vast social media network of 225k and growing, as well as traditional media sources. Bostick is scheduled for many other upcoming local and national media appearances in the coming months. Additionally, Outlook television will feature Bostick and PetsPage in a national public television documentary that will begin airing in early 2014.
“I would like to thank Dr. Katy for giving me an opportunity to talk about Tinks Story, our mission of increasing pet owner awareness of veterinary specialists while encouraging general vets to work together with a specialist to ensure the best possible outcome for pets, and our social pet community, PetsPage.com with her viewers in Washington D.C. and online. I am excited to continue spreading my message about the life-saving potential of veterinary specialty medicine to pet lovers everywhere through social media. Petspage.com and traditional media outlets,” said Bostick.
