Maddie's® Externship at the University of Georgia


Project Start: May 2008
Total Funding: $6,000

The University of Georgia received a grant from Maddie’s Fund® to enable students at the University's College of Veterinary Medicine to work alongside a full-time veterinarian at an adoption guarantee animal shelter(s). An adoption guarantee animal shelter is an animal shelter that saves all the healthy and treatable dogs and cats under its care, with euthanasia reserved only for unhealthy and untreatable dogs and cats.

A final report from the awarded student(s) detailing their shelter experiences will be posted upon completion.
