Merry Christmas to all our colleagues near and far, to all who have volunteered, and to all who made this world a better place! 2024 was an incredible year with clinics in Baltimore, Nicaragua and Peru. Dr. Joe Zulty, very grateful director of GeoVets.

Could a statue say more…

FIRST MONUMENT DEDICATED TO ABANDONED ANIMALS

Since 2010, the boardwalk of Moaña, in Galicia, Spain, houses an emotional sculpture of a dog without a breed with a cat between its legs. This stone work pays tribute to homeless animals and was driven by Lela Soage, a woman whose life was dedicated to providing shelter and love to these abandoned beings. The monument, besides being a symbol of compassion, reminds the importance of respect and responsibility towards animals welfare

GeoVets just completed its biggest yet spay/neuter campaign in the Sacred Valley of Peru! Almost 300 dogs and cats! The Inca gods and we are happy.

29/11/2024

Not quite 300, but we are rounding up from 275. "Proyecto 300" was a success!

In the Sacred Inca Valley of Peru, in the town of Pisac, a team of 29 GeoVeterinary volunteers from multiple US states and Germany collaborated with local partners from Urubamba and Cusco to accomplish 3 full days of dog & cat spays and neuters for the local community.

In the end the lives of many animals and their owners have improved. A drop in the bucket, but a good drop indeed….

Nothing like a Balto. pittie!!! Spent another day helping with a BARCS vaccine clinic in the city.

27/10/2024

Two weekends from now GeoVeterinary International will be undertaking its biggest ever clinic, coined "Proyecto 300".

A team of over 30 from Maine, Maryland, Virginia, Ohio, North Carolina, Colorado, and Germany will collaborate with Petra & Ulises of Urubamba and Dr. Carmen and her colleagues of Cusco to accomplish over 300 dog and cat spays and neuters in the town Pizac in the majestic Sacred Valley of Peru.

Proyecto 300 has been of dream for a while. And now, after a year of preparations and international communications, it is happening! We will have 12 surgery tables operating at the same time. In doing so we will touch a community in need, spread our good deeds, and make life a bit better for people and their pets.

Love fat cats!

🇹🇷🐈‍⬛🪑En Estambul, Turquía, se erigió una estatua en homenaje a Tombili, un querido gato callejero conocido por su singular hábito de sentarse en una postura relajada, observando el movimiento de la calle. Alimentado y cuidado por los vecinos, Tombili se convirtió en un símbolo de la comunidad. En agosto de 2016, su fallecimiento por una enfermedad desconocida dejó un vacío significativo, con su partida anunciada mediante carteles en la calle Güleç Çıkmazı, donde solía estar. La estatua ahora sirve como un recordatorio del especial vínculo entre Tombili y los residentes de la zona.

The president of Argentina had his dog Conan cloned in 2018, producing 5 clones of the original. Interestingly I was involved in the cloning of a long haired Chihuahua named Bruce Wayne in 2017 - which was the first cloned dog in the state of Maryland! Check out photo below.

La historia de sus perros clonados es uno de los temas más comentados en el país sudamericano. Entre rumores y ambigüedades, los perros de Milei, bautizados por su mismo dueño como “sus hijos de cuatro patas”, se han convertido en un tema de interés nacional.

Festival del B***o. One week celebration in Colombia. Love it! (Except that China kills them for the gelatin in their hide - really!)

Every year, the town of San Antero celebrates the hardworking pack animals that haul crops and supplies for farmers who can't afford trucks or motorcycles. There's even a donkey beauty pageant.

Not for cat lovers. Hopefully the Aussies can figure it out.

Feral cats take a heavy toll on the world’s wildlife, especially Down Under. The solution? Smarter traps, sharpshooters, survival camp for prey species, and the “Felixer.”

Yours truly spent another fun and rewarding day with BARCS Animal Shelter on Saturday to vaccinate and microchip dogs in the city. At times it feels good to be a veterinarian!

GeoVets will soon be collaborating with Dr. Lester of AproVet to accomplish much for communities in need in Nicaragua. We will be undertaking a 4 day large scale spay/neuter/medical clinic that will improve the lives of hundreds of dogs and cats. In doing so we will also improve the lives of many in underserved communities. I call it pure veterinary medicine. Dr. Joe Zulty
