Students at the University of Florida College of Veterinary Medicine are the backbone of Helping Hands Pet Rescue, Gainesville’s largest pet rescue organization.
Putting what they are learning from the Certificate in Shelter Medicine into practice, they are rehabilitating sick and injured animals, organizing spay/neuter clinics for shelter pets, hosting adoption events, and placing hundreds of cats and dogs in new homes.
Please join our own Dr. Terry Spencer as she hosts student Lindsey Hidenrite as she speaks on how you can help a homeless pet while honing your own veterinary skills with hands-on experience at a lunch and learn on Tuesday, Sept. 15, at 12:30 PM on “Putting Shelter Medicine into Practice: The Lifesaving Impact of Veterinary Students.”
We hope to see you there!
