March is full of dog events and pet expos that your whole family can enjoy!
This month, one organization I’d like to highlight is Vet Set Go, which is holding an essay contest for middle school students to win a scholarship prize package for Auburn University Junior Veterinary Camp in Alabama over the summer. The deadline to enter is March 31.
This program is part of a larger effort to bring a younger generation into the veterinary workplace to meet the demand of the growing number of pet parents and need for animal care. Read more about tackling the vet shortage here.
