On Saturday, we had so much fun welcoming 6 âmini veterinarians-in-trainingâ to our first free pop-up Teddy Bear Clinic held at Richmond Animal Hospital!
It was heartwarming to see the joy and excitement on the kids' faces as they enjoyed such a unique, personalized experience with their families. By keeping our event to just 6 participants, we ensured that each child received the special attention they deserved.
During our event, we listened to Abeâs heartbeat with the stethoscope, met our clinic cat, Scout, and read the book *A List of Love*, written and illustrated by local author, Brittany Adams and narrated by Dr. Fritz. Then, families were given a tour of our hospital by Dr. Sherman, and finally, kids gowned up with gloves and masks as Dr. Fritz performed surgery to fix their stuffies, while Dr. Sherman casted them!
Our time ended with donuts from Quality Bake Shop and juice boxes, and each participant was given a Richmond Animal Hospital t-shirt, an RAH coloring book, and a copy of the book we read!
As a clinic and a family, we deeply value community engagement and strive to create meaningful connections with our local families. Events like these allow us to foster relationships, share our passion for veterinary care, and give back to the community that supports us. Itâs inspiring to see families come together, and we look forward to creating more special moments in the future at our clinic.
A special thank you to the families that joined us, to the kids who brought their best listening ears and curious selves, and to Dr. Fritz for bringing this idea to us from her vet school experience!
