Pictures of SCAVMA Events

In April 2006, we dedicated the Teaching Hospital's first Underwater Treadmill, which was purchased and donated to the hospital by SCAVMA from funds raised by the Hill's College (Pet) Feeding Program throughout the previous year. The treadmill cost almost $40,000, and is a valuable tool used to help dogs recuperate from injuries and surgeries with low-impact exercise.The Red & Black came out to report on the dedication ceremony, as did the Newssource 15 student TV station. View the official press release.
