Building Skills, Saving Lives: Vet Students Serve Ohio’s Pets

The Ohio Pet Fund provided Rascal Charities with an educational grant to offer teaching opportunities to veterinary students to improve their skills, confidence and experience while helping the community and animals. We are mentoring the veterinarians of tomorrow while helping the animals of today.

Seven veterinary students, from 1st to 4th year of vet school, sterilized and provided wellness and medical care to about 30 cats from Colony Cats as part of this event thank to the educational grant from the Ohio Pet Fund.

In addition, Dr. G, an Ohio Animal Advocates board member, and Dr. Middleton and Dr. Middleton offered sterilization and preventive care, plus additional medical care as needed, to about 20 dogs and 60 cats from Save Ohio Pets and Hospets’ clients. These services were funded by the Dublin Pet Fair.
