ASAP need help

I am writing to make you aware of a huge up coming event in Memphis, TN. Dr. Bill Miller of the American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists is giving a free eye exam to all service dogs. This is the beginning (test) for a National campaign in May 2008 sponsored by the ACVO and the AVMA. There are numerous companies backing this like Merial (Heartgard and Frontline), Novartis, Bayer, Hills, Purina, etc…. I believe this campaign will receive National exposure – which will bring much needed support to these great animals and the organizations like yours that bring them to the people who need them.

I believe in what you are doing because my wife's grandfather was a four star general, Bruce Holloway, who served this country for many years, but at the end of his life went completely blind. I know that what you are doing providing these loved companions makes a difference. You have any animals in the Memphis area please send them to this event along with a representative of your organization. – Thank you Phillip Shackelford (phillipshackelford@yahoo.com)

Pet Health Systems is sponsoring William W. Miller DVM, MS ( Diplomat American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists) “Eye Exams for Service Dogs”, campaign by providing Pet Wellness Reports to all service dogs (seeing eye, search and rescue, police, etc…) through the Service Dog’s primary care veterinarian. This event is our first step to a national “Eye Exam for Service Dogs”, campaign through the American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists (ACVO) members early next year.

This Service Dog eye examination will be conducted at the Animal Emergency Center and qualified service dog owners will be referred to their primary care veterinarians. Pet Health Systems will be sponsoring this event through the help and support of animal health companies, and animal associations.

“Eye Exams for Service Dogs”, will be held on Thursday, December 13th from 8am-1pm at the Animal Emergency Center – Advanced Animal Eye Care, 3767 Summer Avenue, Memphis, TN 38122. Owners of dogs that qualify must call to make an appointment for their free Certified Eye Exam – (901) 323-5203. On December 13th at the time of their exam with Dr. Miller they will receive a certificate for a free Pet Wellness Report and associated laboratory panels (including the eye exam a $280.00 value). Please call as soon as possible because space will be limited.

The local Memphis Shelby County Veterinary Medical Associations (MSCVMA) president, and the president of the Tennessee Veterinarians Medical Association (TVMA), will be there along with news and TV coverage, radio, and newspaper coverage.

I agree with Dr. Miller when he said, “I believe this is an opportunity to give back to a group of animals in our community that have been serving us for years.”

Thank you,
