In honor of Black History Month:

"Alfreda Johnson Webb
(1923-1992)
Dr. Alfreda Johnson Webb was a trailblazer, becoming the first Black woman to graduate from veterinary school in the United States.

Dr. Johnson Webb was born in 1923 in Mobile, Ala. After completing a bachelor of science degree at the Tuskegee Institute (now University), she attended the Tuskegee Institute College of Veterinary Medicine. In 1949, Dr. Johnson Webb graduated as the first Black woman to graduate from veterinary school in the United States, thus becoming the first Black woman licensed to practice veterinary medicine in the country. She also became the first Black member of the Women’s Veterinary Association in the same year.

Dr. Johnson Webb decided to continue her education, which would bring her to the State of Michigan to earn a master’s degree (M.S. in Anatomy) from Michigan State University in 1950.

Dr. Johnson Webb remained at the Tuskegee Institute where she taught anatomy until 1959, completing her tenure there as an Associate Professor. She then served as a professor of biology at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University (NCA&T) from 1959-1978. During her time at NC A&T, she was a member of the planning committee which founded the School of Veterinary Medicine of North Carolina State University. In 1971, she became the first Black woman in the North Carolina General Assembly, serving on many committees including serving as the Chairperson of Minority Affairs.

All faculty, staff and students of North Carolina State University’s College of Veterinary Medicine are sorted into four houses to promote college well-being. House Webb is named after Dr. Johnson Webb and its crest is an anatomical portrait of a dog. The crest recognizes Webb’s dedication to teaching and her focus on companion animals."

In honor of Black History Month

"Dr. Iverson C. Bell
(1916-1984)

Iverson C. Bell, Sr., DVM, believed passionately that each of us can and should make the best use of our talents to serve our fellow human beings and animals alike. His personal philosophy was evident in his extensive accomplishments as a husband, father, veterinarian, and leader in both professional and civic affairs...
In addition to managing a thriving private practice and raising his family of four children, Dr. Bell became a committed and influential leader in both professional and civic affairs. In recognition of these efforts, he was named Man of the Year by his college fraternity, Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc., and his leadership was recognized nationally when he was offered an ambassadorship to Nigeria during the Kennedy administration...
Throughout his lifetime, Dr. Bell fought the prevalent racial discrimination and segregation of the era. As part of this struggle, he served as chairman of the executive board of the Terra Haute chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the most influential civil rights organization for ethnic minorities in the United States in that era."

💖 This Valentine’s Day, show your pet some extra love while keeping them safe – and help keep other pets safe by sharing this post!

Here are a few Valentine’s pet safety tips to keep in mind:

-Keep chocolate, candy, and treats with xylitol far out of reach—they’re toxic to pets!
-Watch out for flowers like lilies, which are especially dangerous for cats.
-Be mindful of lit candles and decorations that curious paws might knock over.
-Secure ribbons, strings, and wrappers to avoid accidental ingestion.

Wishing you and your pets a safe and sweet Valentine’s Day!
