Veterinary Science

From breed ID to practical scenarios, this contest has it all

The Small Animal Care contest is transitioning into the national Veterinary Science contest. In 2012, teams from the top two placing schools will be sent to National Convention to compete in an exposition of the new CDE. The new contest will contain many of the same activities as the Small Animal Care contest but will not emphasize grooming or pet shop practical applications. Contact the contest coordinators for more information.
