Let’s talk about rabies. We know it sounds a bit scary, but don’t worry—we’re here to make sure you have all the info you need to keep your pets safe!

Getting your requests to your veterinarian can be quite a process, especially when you are uncertain about the necessary information we need to fulfill the request.

Dr. Lushington was the first man of African descent to earn a DVM in the US! He began his veterinary adventure treating cows, horses and other live stock. 

Dr. Patterson got his DVM in 1923 and began teaching at Tuskegee University in 1928. This amazing man will live on for years to come thanks to his hard work and dedication.
