Junior Vet Camp
The Junior Vet Camp gives us a chance to familiarize your preteen with the more in-depth knowledge in the rescue/veterinarian world that maybe your average person wouldn’t know. Five days of workshops and educational videos by experts about intermediate level pet care, observing pet behavior, AND each day we take a field trip to see a rescue partner, whether it be a veterinarian clinic or your local county animal control, to show all the cogs in the machine that is the rescue industry. It also gives the kids a chance to acquaint themselves with the different careers within the rescue industry. Who knows? Maybe weโre among the next Jackson Galaxy, leading the charge and revolutionizing what it means to rescue.
