Shelter Planned Pethood Program
The
Planned Pethood Program operates at a statewide and
county level.
Statewide
Animal Shelter Planned Pethood Program
A collaboration with shelter and animal rescue organizations
and the North Carolina Veterinary Medical Association
allows second and third year students to hone medicine
and surgery skills and serve a segment of the pet
population that normally would not have access to
medical care.
Wake
County Animal Shelter Planned Pethood Program
Second
and third year students spay and neuter adaptable
animals on Sundays at the Wake County Animal Shelter

Feral
Cat Spay and Neuter Project
Feral
cat populations in the communities on the Outer Banks
of North Carolina represent a growing problem for condominium
associations and many businesses. To ameliorate this
problem, fall and spring spay neuter and rabies vaccination
clinics are carried out in cooperation with local animal
control and rescue organizations, veterinarians, and
businesses.
Community
Classroom Experiential Learning
A
two-week fourth-year elective has been established in
a local small animal practices to reinforce skills in
problem-solving, general medicine and surgery, client
communication, and principles of practice management.
