    NEWS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Stacee Daniel, ACVO Director American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists Ph: 208.466.7624 Fx: 208.466.7693 [email protected] www.ACVOeyeexam.org; www.ACVO.org 10,000 SERVICE DOGS TO RECEIVE THE GIFT OF PRESERVED SIGHT United States of America, May 12, 2008 – The American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists® (ACVO®) and Pet Health Systems (PHS) are launching the ACVO® National Service Dog Eye Exam event the week of May 12th. This unprecedented event will provide free sight-saving eye exams and preventative health reports to 5,000-10,000 Service Dogs. Over 140 board certified veterinary ophthalmologists and 1,300 general veterinarians across the US will work together to provide these services at no cost to Service Dog groups including: guide dogs, handicapped assistance dogs, detection dogs and search and rescue dogs. With this event, ACVO® and PHS hope to give back to these animals who selflessly serve the public for no compensation. They will accomplish this goal while donating nearly One Million dollars in services to the 5,000- 10,000 Service Dogs anticipated to participate. An ACVO® Diplomate recently hosted a local ‘test’ event in Memphis, TN and examined 87 Service Dogs. The local event was so successful that ACVO decided to offer this program on a national scale. One seeing-eye dog, “Quest”, was diagnosed with a possible sight-robbing tumor, which would be devastating to both him and his owner, Mr. Ron McKenney. We are hopeful that through the partnership of a veterinary oncologist and veterinary ophthalmologist Quest may be able to retain his sight.

Abstract Go to: The number of veterinarians in the United States is inadequate to meet societal needs in biomedical research and public health. Areas of greatest need include translational medical research, veterinary pathology, laboratory­animal medicine, emerging infectious diseases, public health, academic medicine, and production­animal medicine. Veterinarians have unique skill sets that enable them to serve as leaders or members of interdisciplinary research teams involved in basic science and biomedical research with applications to animal or human health. There are too few graduate veterinarians to serve broad national needs in private practice; academia; local, state, and federal government agencies; and private industry.
