Are you a veterinarian who would like to connect with like-minded peers who share your interest in shelter medicine? Do you want to gain the special knowledge and skills needed to care for a large number of homeless dogs and cats? And would you like to earn 45 contact hours of continuing education credits per online course you take?

Until recently, few veterinary schools have offered training to prepare veterinarians to work in shelters or care for animals who come from shelters. Now, the Maddie's^® Shelter Medicine Online Graduate Certificate Program at the University of Florida College of Veterinary Medicine allows busy working veterinarians to learn at their convenience.

Next semester, the program will offer two courses and up to five scholarships. You can find more information and apply here.
