A western companion animal veterinary surveillance network
This initiative is open to all veterinary clinics and veterinarians who provide service to companion animals (dogs specifically) in Western Canada (British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba).
"This initiative will provide vital baseline information for the veterinary profession. For example, are diseases occurring in your region for which you need to initiate new prevention measures? Real-time surveillance of selected companion animal diseases will provide baseline information upon which to evaluate changes over time — specifically those driven by external forces (such as climate-driven diseases or even social contexts)."
