Shelter and Rescue Information

The VVMA Animal Welfare Committee is pleased to make the following updated information available to approved Vermont shelters and rescues.  Please note the updates in the Best Practices for Shelters documents.  If a rescue organization or shelter does not have a veterinarian of record, we would recommend that shelter personnel use a telemedicine platform for both diagnostic and treatment information.  If your organization is not listed here, please contact the VVMA at [email protected] for assistance.
