Popular Australian animal series Bondi Vet has been honoured with a prestigious Parents’ Choice Award in the United States. The Parents’ Choice Foundation is America’s oldest non-profit consumer guide to quality children’s media, and its awards for quality and excellence are highly coveted.

Fewer than 20% of the products submitted to the Parents’ Choice Awards programme receive any level of commendation.

Produced by Australian production company, WTFN Entertainment and licensed to Litton Group through Fred Media, Bondi Vet is better known to U.S. viewers as Dr. Chris – Pet Vet.

The family friendly show follows the heartwarming journeys of sick and injured animals and their devoted owners and can now be seen in over 170 territories.

Parents-choice.org reporter Ann Oldenburg said, “The value of the show is that it’s all about caring, compassionate, passionate doctors who are working to help all creatures, great and small.”

Fred Media’s General Manager, Michael Aldrich says, “We are very proud to have such an internationally acclaimed program in our catalogue. Winning a Parents’ Choice Award is a testament to the mass appeal and quality of Dr. Chris – Pet Vet.”
