If you are a pet lover, pet business, and pet organization or have a pet blog, this post is for you!

Probably the biggest community on Periscope right now that serves the pet industry is PetLoversTribe.com. The mastermind and founder of this unique community is Therese Kopiwoda. You can find Therese on Periscope @Kopiwoda. The best way to become a member of this free community is to follow Therese on Periscope, sign up on the website and start scoping with #petloverstribe in your scope titles. When you start adding the hashtag to your scope titles, it alerts the other members that you are also a lover of your fur baby and folks from the tribe show up to drown you in hearts and offer support during your scopes.
