She's at the bottom of the page: Trisha Volpe.


She called to confirm yesterday.... I'm getting excited!

~~~~~~
I first mentioned this in the General forum in the thread 15 Minutes of Fame (http://207.44.135.130/talk/showthread.php?s=&threadid=45969&perpage=15&highlight=proheart&pagenumber=1).

A news station in Grand Rapids, MI is doing a news story about ProHeart6.

The reporter, Trisha, just called again today and they are coming out to my apartment at 7 a.m. Monday, April 26th to do a live interview with me and of course Kia. :)

Heartworm season is approaching so please, research all the available options.

For other news stories and information about dogs that have been affected by ProHeart6, please visit: The Moxidectin website (http://www.dogsadversereactions.com/moxidectin/moxidectinpage.html)

That is great, Kimmy! I am glad the story is going to air and maybe bring some awareness to the issue.

Drake used to be on Proheart for 3 years. It suited him fine. We are using Heartguard now.

Oh I know! :(

Sammy's before and after picture is just heartbreaking. I hear he is just now starting to grow his normal color hair back in some spots.

Kia is among the lucky ones, isn't she? Makes me sad that something that should be so good has had such an ill effect on so many. :(

Good luck on Monday, Kimmy and Kia!!!! :D You are not only "stars", but you're sending a much needed message too.

Hey Kia ~

Ask Mom do do a lil Advance Planning -
and the TV Folks might give you guys a Video of the Show!

Things that ALWAYS go over well with a TV Crew =

Kawfee & DoNutz (especially at :eek: 7 AM on a Monday!)

Have Mom wear a *nice* outfit -
with colors that won't *blend in* with the walls and furniture
in the 'partment.
Ya mite call Trisha and ASK what she'd suggest.

Prolly NOT a problem in YOUR Howze (MAJOR problem in OURS :p ) -
but have the room *tidy* & neat!

Have your Favorite TOY handy - so they can *attract yur attenshun*
an get you to *look atta camera*.

An tell Mom to NOT to *look atta camera*!
Dat usually makes da Hoomin all *nerbus* & *jittery*!
Often the Reporter will stand beside the Camera Person - and they
usually suggest the subject look AT the Reporter and NOT directly into
the camera. Looks very "natural" that way.
If you "talk to" the reporter; you'll forget about the camera!

Make some *notes* of what points YOU would like to cover in the
interview. Go over them with Trisha before the camera rolls.
Or she may TELL you in advance what she will be asking...
a good reporter will do a dry or practice run-through with you.

And when you're done;
be sure to ASK FOR a Video Copy of the final, edited program!
Sometimes they'll even include all the rough footage they took -
the *out takes* can be *interesting*! ;)

Don't Furget - *SMILE*!

:D

Coffee and donuts. Great idea! :D

I'm not sure if they are going to be filming inside. My apartment is so cramped. Trisha mentioned if the weather was nice, we'd take it outside. :)

Thanks for the pointers Phred! :)

WOW our very own TV star! Now I know for sure that Roxey and Huney are going to be asking for your PawtoGraff Sunday (and probably alot of other too;)) so make sure you have your paw stamp ready!


Kim, I'm really glad that they decided that they were going to do this interview. People need to be informed.

We've got more to worry about than how the TV Interview went...

Kia had a return of the :eek: Seizures today -
and has been taken to the Vet by Kimmy...

Please check in on this thread >>>

Kimmy & Kia need PT Prayers (http://PetoftheDay.com/talk/showthread.php?s=&postid=688516)

to Offer your Prayers for Kia and Kim.

Thanks!

Thanks Phred. :)

I did most of the talking, but Kia got more TV shots. ;) :D Looking forward to seeing what makes it on aire and what doesn't.

They showed up right at 7 a.m. and we got right to work. I have a sign in my house that says, "A home without a dog is just a house". So she started the interview on that note and asked all about how much animals mean to me, how I had got Kia, and then how important her health is to me. Then we talked about what happened that day and how she was doing now. In all, I was interviewed for about 25 minutes. Kia just wandered around in and out of frame. *laughs*

Before the interview started, Zam ran up and jumped up behind me, so she got some aire time too. ;) My hams...

After the interview, the camera guy took lots of shots of Kia just chilling in the apartment, then doing tricks, then the two of us posed under my sign. We then took her outside and took lots of shots of me walking her around and playing with her. :)

Kia was wonderful. :)

Looking forward to the final product. :D
