AVMA resources for educators

The AVMA recognizes the important role of teachers, counselors, and advisors in guiding the future careers of today's students. With a growing need for trained veterinarians to protect animal and human health, we ask your help in promoting your students' interest in science and technology. The AVMA has created career materials and classroom activities for every grade level to engage students in pursuing careers in animal science, public health, and veterinary medicine.
 
Pet care
First aid tips for pet owners

First aid is not a substitute for veterinary care, but it may save your pet's life until you can get veterinary treatment. Learn how to prepare for pet medical emergencies, stock a first aid kit for your pets, and administer basic first aid to dogs, cats and other animals.
 
Paws for Pets

Paws For Pets by Dr. Gail C. Golab offers valuable information for the new pet owner, including seasonal pet health tips to help keep your pet healthy all year long.
