The bond between pet and owner is fused from a mutual need for loving companionship. It takes a deep level of care to keep that relationship healthy. The veterinarian has an essential role in ensuring that the relationship is truly enduring by providing preventive pet healthcare.

Today, many pets do not get the preventive care they need. Over the last 5 years, common and often preventable conditions in cats and dogs continue to grow. As members of the veterinary profession, we can always do better to help pets and their owners enjoy longer, healthier lives together.

That is why we formed the Partnership for Preventive Pet Healthcare — a team of veterinary professionals, academia, and industry leaders focused on a singular mission: to ensure that pets receive the preventive healthcare they deserve through regular visits to a veterinarian.

Ultimately, our vision is to improve the overall health of our pets.

AVMF leads the charge in helping America's pets. Read more about our efforts at PetHealthPartnership.org.
