Our progressive animal shelter cares for nearly 1,200 animals per year with in-house medical assessments and treatments. This is a great opportunity to CVTs and students to practice their existing skills and learn more about shelter medicine while treating our cats and dogs.
Previous animal handling and medical experience is required, as is a positive attitude and desire to help us save the lives of cats and dogs in need!
