JULY DOWNTOWN DOG RESCUE CLINIC
From Downtown Dog Rescue:
We vaccinated microchipped dewormed and provided flea meds to 228 cats and
dogs. 173 dogs 110 need to be spayed or neutered, and 55 cats 34 need to be spayed or
neutered. Every person attending this clinic is offered lots of free and low cost surgery
options. If they are unavailable to go online to get more info, one of our counselors will
assist them and in some cases, provide a ride to and from the animal hospital. More
than just " free shots " we are building relationships with people with pets who live in
some of the most underserved areas of Los Angeles with the highest shelter intake.
From Hawk:
We hit the ground running on this busy summer Sunday. Veterinary teams pulled
together quickly to serve the community and deliver wellness care to pets who
may not otherwise see a veterinarian. I appreciate everyone's flexibility as we
shifted volunteer veterinary professionals and soon-to-be professionals to where
they were most needed. Kudos to the cat team in a new building location for keeping
things running smoothly! By the time the clouds cleared and the sun was out,
our work was done. Nice job!
Upcoming clinics are scheduled for 845 AM to 1100 AM on the following dates:
September 10, October 8, November 12, and December 10.
If you are interested in helping out, email us at scvmagivesback@scvma.org with
your name, email address, and your role in the profession.
