What Does Public Vet Do?
We Invest in Health
Our goal is to identify communities that are at risk, and provide/improve the quality of life of the animals. Public Veterinary Service uses veterinary care as an incentive to network and educate each community we work in. We work directly with animal control officers and humane societies to identify at-risk communities and implement programs that promote animal health and wellbeing.
Our Commitment to You and Your Pet
Our organization seeks to address any factors that adversely affect health. We organize veterinary, epidemiological & educational resources tailored to the communities needs. Public Veterinary Service invites everyone to invest in health by supporting our mission to improve the quality of life for animals and pets in every community.
