For the Love of Pinot Memorial Scholarship and Dr. Rocky J. Deutsch Tribute
On July 4, 2021, a beloved sixteen-year-old Boston terrier, Pinot, passed away after a battle with cancer and vestibular disease.
Pinot was loved by many, including his family and his veterinarian, Rocky Deutsch, who sent bouquets of flowers and a card after Pinot’s passing, displaying incredible compassion in a difficult time. Veterinarians like Rocky not only put everything into giving animals the best care possible but also touch the lives of their families through their kindness.
This scholarship aims to honor the incredible patient-veterinarian relationship between Pinot and Rocky by supporting students pursuing careers as veterinarians.
Any high school, undergraduate, or graduate student with at least a 3.5 GPA who seeks to attain a doctoral degree in veterinary medicine may apply for this scholarship opportunity.
