Veterinary Ambassadors
Our goal at The Anti-Cruelty Society is to find a loving home for every adoptable animal in need. One of the best ways to ensure a healthy and happy life for a pet is to establish partnerships with s veterinarians in our community. Through ACS’s Veterinary Ambassadors program, we achieve this goal by connecting veterinary practices with adopters while offering additional resources to new pet owners and encouraging veterinary visits from the onset of every adoption.
Our Veterinary Ambassador program helps grow awareness of ACS and the benefits of adopting shelter animals. The partnership also offers a tremendous amount of exposure and potential new clients to your practice.
As a Veterinary Ambassador, you are entitled to the following benefits:
- Listing as a Veterinary Ambassador in our ASC Magazine and Annual Report, circulation of 30,000 households
- Your vet practice highlighted in new adopters' packets and on our website exposing your clinic to hundreds of potential new clients to help grow your business
- Continued education, seminars, and networking opportunities for veterinarians, vet techs, managers, and staff
- Additional opportunities to partner with us during community outreach initiatives and ACS events
- Social media recognition on our ACS channels
Veterinary Ambassador Requirements:
- Offer a wellness examination for $20. The wellness exam will be limited to a one-time visit within 90 days of the date of the pet’s adoption from ACS. The wellness exam must? include a physical examination
- Any/all tests, vaccinations, and/or procedures recommended through the wellness examination, will be provided at a 5% discount.
- Display an ASC Veterinary Ambassador certificate, provided by us, prominently in your lobby
- Provide a financial commitment of $500 annually to ACS
For pets and their owners, the program offers the following benefits:
