Our industry sponsorship supports the Oregon Veterinary Medical Association’s public relations program. Our education resources for veterinarians as well as our outreach programs for the public help to promote the highest standards of animal care and the profession of veterinary medicine.

With Our Sponsors’ Support

Our industry sponsors’ support has helped us in carrying out our public relations and communications goals, including:

• Development of client education posters, brochures, and Web content on a variety of large and small animal topics such as pet identification, cat and dog behavior, Lyme disease, heartworm disease, fish disease, toxoplasmosis, introducing a pet to a baby, and more.
• Media releases on animal health issues.
• Publication of the OVMA Directory and Resource Guide, in which our industry sponsors receive exclusive recognition and advertising.
• Continued development of this Web site, which averages nearly 2,000 unique visits per day. Our pet owner health care tips and Find a Vet service rank highest with non-veterinarian visitors to our site. Our 2007 coverage of the pet food recall drove thousands of visitors to our site each day.
• Coordination of the State Fair booth, which allows us to reach out to thousands of Oregonians on animal health care issues. Our 2007 booth received a third place ribbon! The 2008 booth will focus on the needs of senior pets.
• OVMA e-News, a bimonthly e-mail broadcast to OVMA members alerting them to the latest veterinary news.
