Last night was our final CE for this spring. Thank you to everyone who attended both last night and throughout the last few months. Thank you also to all of our wonderful presenters and sponsors.

Without Bush Advanced Veterinary Imaging, Bush Veterinary Neurology Service, Chesapeake Veterinary Cardiology Associates – CVCA, Dogwood Veterinary Emergency & Specialty Center, Radiocat, The Oncology Service, Veterinary Dermatology Richmond, the Virginia Association of Licensed Veterinary Technicians and Virginia Veterinary Surgical Associates, this series would not be possible.

Thank you for your hard work, support and commitment to providing first-rate and world class CE to the Central Virginia veterinary community!

We will be back in the fall and will announce more details soon!


An Update on George!

George enjoying his forever home!

Do you remember the stray dachshund that was brought in to Dogwood in February suffering from injuries from a suspected dog attack? Well we have great news, he has found his forever home.

Now named General George S. Patton he is now living with his new family in the mountains of Pennsylvania. If you are wondering about the name, he came to his new home named George and the rest was added to honor his struggle and his courage!

Thank you to Virginia Veterinary Surgical Associates for performing surgery and taking such great care of George and to Ring Dog Rescue for finding him temporary care and his forever home. If you would like to see his dramatic “before” pictures please click here.

It truly takes a village and we are more than happy to be a part of the effort!
