Celebrate National Vet Tech Week with HSVC!
By Humane Society of Ventura County
Animal welfare organizations nationwide are celebrating National Vet Tech Appreciation Week this week! HSVC is no exception, as we have a team of talented vet techs assisting our Veterinarians in the Clinic daily. This special week allows us the space to shine a spotlight on the hard work and dedication of our Clinic staff. Our vet techs are essential to ensuring the health and wellness of all animals, including our shelter population and the public's pets. We believe our staff should be showered with gratitude year-round, but we encourage all our supporters to please join us in celebrating these amazing professionals during this dedicated week!
