"Did you ever wonder where you would end up if you took your dog for a walk and never once pulled back on the leash?"
- Robert Brault

Please inquire at our reception desk about any job or volunteer opportunities.

Volunteering
We are always delighted to meet people who love animals and eagerly welcome people to volunteer in our hospital who are interested in learning about veterinary medicine. Our doctors willingly visit schools to discuss animal health and veterinary related issues and are open to visitation by school groups, girl/boy scout troops, kindergarten classes, and high school senior interns, college students, etc.
We also mentor active, serious students who are studying to be veterinary technicians, veterinarians, or who are on the veterinary career path and would like to participate in shadowing the doctors to learn more about veterinary medicine.
Please note that these volunteer positions are not a hands-on endeavor.
