Successful Pilot Project Executed in Brazil
This month we had a veterinary team in northeastern Brazil to provide a free high volume sterilization campaign as well as surgical instruction to local veterinarians. This was our first time working in the country and feel it was quite successful with 500 + surgeries being performed and 20 + veterinarians benefiting from training.
We’d like to thank our dedicated volunteers for a tireless yet rewarding project, Fondation Brigitte Bardot for their support of this endeavor as well as our local partners. See more pictures
World Vets Continues its Commitment to Animals in Albania
World Vets has been working in Albania for many years to provide sterilization services at no cost in various communities to help control the dog and cat population.
This past month World Vets had a team in Shkoder, Albania to provide a high volume sterilization campaign. Our free veterinary services benefited feral and free roaming cats as well as street dogs. Almost 200 animals received care during this visit. We’d like to thank our dedicated volunteers as well as local partners for another successful campaign!
Our next visit to Albania is scheduled for April 2019. We still have volunteer positions open – find out more
