Mary Francis Garner

 

The Garner house may be divided when it comes to football, but one thing they do agree on is where to seek state-of-the-art veterinary care for their cherished pet, 
Little Feet. 
Mary Francis Garner didn’t hesitate to call on Auburn when her 12-year-old golden retriever developed a large mass on his head in May of 2010. Little Feet was diagnosed with a skull sarcoma and treated by the Auburn oncology team led by Dr. William Brawner.After completing radiation, Little Feet is back to his “old self” and living a full and active life with his owners. 
Regardless of who you support on the gridiron, the winning team for veterinary care is Auburn University’s College of Veterinary Medicine.  What more can we say? 
Even “they” think so!

The Brothers of Alpha Psi

On August 26, 2011, Acting Dean Calvin Johnson accepted a $1 million dollar pledge from current members and alumni of the Theta Chapter of Alpha Psi fraternity on behalf of the Auburn University College of Veterinary Medicine. 
This gift is made possible by proceeds from the Alpha Psi Rodeo which has been held each year since 1965 and serves as the fundraising catalyst for the many charitable contributions made by this generous organization. 
The Alpha Psi Rodeo has become one of the largest student-run events in the Southeast and helps to support organizations like Storybook Farm, Special Olympics,  Cops on Top, veterinary missions, and the Alabama Sheriffs’ Youth Ranches. 
This most recent gift is just one of the many ways the students, alumni and friends of the College of Veterinary Medicine are contributing to our community, our nation, and our world— and one more important reason to support this campaign.

The Southeastern Raptor Center Team

Since its modest beginning in the 
mid-1970s, the Southeastern Raptor Center has treated and released thousands of birds of prey back into the wild and educated countless school children on the merits of wildlife conservation. From the majestic stadium flights of War Eagle VII, to the comprehensive veterinary care provided to injured or orphaned raptors, the center continues to uphold its three-fold mission of conservation, education, and rehabilitation. 
These are just three of the ways the Southeastern Raptor Center is making valuable contributions to our schools, our communities, and our world— and three important reasons to support this campaign.

From the exploration of “suicide gene
therapy,” to a revolutionary new cellbased
vaccine, clinicians and scientists at
Auburn are pioneering new ways of using
molecular and cellular biology to prevent
and successfully treat our nation’s pet
population.
Cutting-edge research, state-of-the-art
diagnostics and prevention, and pioneering
treatment therapies are just three of

Dwight Wolfe: Theriogenologist, Veterinary Professor, Member of the Alabama Livestock Hall of Fame and Protector of Our Nation's Food Supply

Theriogenology is a big word, but contributions made by Dwight Wolfe and many other food animal veterinarians like him are much bigger. A term coined in the 1970s, theriogenology denotes the study of animal reproduction. 

Food animal veterinarians have the unique responsibility not only for the worldwide care and treatment of livestock, but the eradication of threatening diseases, and the monitoring of national food safety via state, local, and federal agencies. 
Food animal veterinarians serve as the first line of defense against threats such as foot-and-mouth disease, anthrax, and salmonella, and keep watch over the meat, milk, and fiber found in our nation’s marketplaces. 
Your support of the College of Veterinary Medicine goes well beyond the productivity and well-being of food animals — it ensures the United States continues to enjoy the most wholesome, abundant, and economical food supply in the world.Theriogenology is a big word, but contributions made by Dwight Wolfe and many other food animal veterinarians like him are much bigger.
