IS YOUR PET READY FOR AN EMERGENCY?

June is National Pet Preparedness Month!

When most people think about emergency preparedness, they think about their family, but your pets are part of the family too!

Would you quickly be able to locate:
✅ Vaccine records
✅ Medications
✅ A carrier or leash
✅ Emergency contact information
✅ Food and water supplies

Being prepared can make all the difference during severe weather, unexpected travel, or other emergencies.

One of the easiest ways to prepare is to make sure your pet is up-to-date on vaccinations, has current medical records, and is microchipped with accurate contact information.

At the Munford Spay Neuter Clinic, we’re proud to help families keep their pets healthy, safe, and prepared year-round.

🐾 Being prepared starts before an emergency happens. If your pet is due for vaccines, a wellness exam, testing, or a microchip, now is a great time to get those items checked off your preparedness list.

📅 Summer appointments are available, including a few openings next week! We have very few June availability, and our July calendar is now open for scheduling.

📞 Call or text (731) 882-2286 to schedule.

“Yesterday, former Tennessee Commissioner of Agriculture and congressional candidate Charlie Hatcher visited Tipton County and spent time meeting with local farmers before touring the Munford High School Agricultural Department.

During his visit, Dr. Hatcher learned more about the Munford High School Spay and Neuter Clinic, which provides students with hands-on experience for those interested in veterinary medicine and animal care careers. As a veterinarian and former Tennessee State Veterinarian, he expressed appreciation for the opportunities the program provides students.

The clinic, established during his tenure as Tennessee Commissioner of Agriculture, was the first program of its kind in Tennessee and continues to serve as an example of innovative agricultural education.

We appreciate Dr. Hatcher taking the time to visit our students, learn about the work taking place in our agricultural education program, and discuss the importance of supporting agriculture, veterinary medicine, and rural communities.

Thank you for your interest in Munford FFA and agricultural education.” - Courtesy of Munford FFA Chapter’s page

☀️ Summer appointments are now available at the Munford Spay Neuter Clinic! 🐾

Our June clinic dates are set, and we are officially opening appointments for wellness visits, vaccines, spay/neuter surgeries, and more.

As a school-based veterinary clinic, summer scheduling takes a little extra coordination as we work around staff availability, student opportunities, and summer activities including FFA Little Lamb Camp and Tennessee FFA Leadership Camp. Because of that, appointment spots can fill quickly!

Whether your pet needs annual vaccines, a wellness exam, testing, or surgery, we’d love to help provide quality, affordable veterinary care while continuing to give students meaningful, hands-on learning experiences.

🐾 Get to know our Veterinary Clinic Staff: GUS
(Clinic Cat, Student Supervisor, Cleanliness Inspector & Professional Belly Rub Recipient)

Meet Gus, the true boss of the Munford Spay Neuter Clinic. 😺

Gus came to us in December 2020 during the middle of COVID after arriving as a not-so-friendly trapped stray cat. What started as a cat that wasn’t sure about people quickly turned into something special. Everyone who met him fell in love and truthfully, he decided people were pretty great too.

While Gus may not always love other animals, he absolutely loves people and has become an important part of our clinic family.

Most days, you can find him:
🐾 Supervising students in the classroom
🐾 Helping calm nerves with cuddles and company
🐾 Monitoring student expectations (very seriously)
🐾 Accepting belly rubs and treats as payment

After every surgery day, Gus also makes his official rounds to inspect the clinic and ensure it meets his very high standards of cleanliness and organization.

In April 2024, Gus faced a major challenge after extensive testing revealed an injection site sarcoma, a cancerous mass that required the amputation of his back leg. Thanks to the care of Dr. Klimt, Gus recovered like an absolute champion and continues to run the clinic like nothing ever happened. Three legs? No problem.

Fun facts about Gus:
📅 He was featured in “The Paw Print” Calendar for December 2025
🎓 He has an official MHS ID badge in case anyone questions his authority
😎 He is a fashion icon and has a wardrobe fit for every occasion!
🏡 During school breaks, he enjoys evaluating the professionalism (and furniture quality) of students and staff homes

This year, while his favorite person, Mrs. Hammond, has been out, Gus has spent many of his breaks with interim substitute & honorary FFA Degree recipient, Lily Turner, and her family. Let’s just say, they have formed a pretty special bond. We couldn’t be more appreciative ♥️

If you’ve met Gus, then you already know… he’s more than a clinic cat. He’s family!

🐾 Need to schedule an appointment? Gus has officially approved opening the books! We currently have limited availability this coming Thursday, and our June clinic calendar is now open and ready to book for wellness visits, vaccines, surgeries, and more.
📞 Call or text (731) 882-2286 to schedule your appointment!

“Isn’t it free?”
“Aren’t y’all just doing science experiments?”
“I thought y’all were really cheap.”
“When are you going to get grants again?”

Honestly, these are fair questions, sometimes humorous, and ones we hear often.

The truth is, we work hard to keep our services as low-cost as possible, but veterinary care still comes with real expenses. While we are a teaching clinic, we are also a licensed veterinary clinic, and every patient is cared for under the supervision of a licensed veterinarian.

Low-cost does not mean no-cost. Your appointment helps cover things like licensed veterinarians, medications, vaccines, anesthesia, surgical supplies, diagnostic testing, and consumable supplies used in patient care.

Our mission has always been to balance three important goals:
🎓 Giving students meaningful, real-world veterinary experience and training
🏠 Reserving half of our appointment availability to the Tipton Co. Animal Shelter
🐾Providing affordable veterinary care to our community

When you support our clinic, you are not only helping your pet- you are helping train the next generation of veterinary professionals.

We are incredibly grateful to those who understand the challenges that come with low-cost veterinary medicine, shelter medicine, and student learning. Thank you to everyone who has trusted us with their pets, donated resources, or simply supported what we do.
❤️ Thank you for supporting our students, animals, and community.

📅 We have limited May clinic appointments before school lets out for summer!

🌟 Student Spotlight: Addison Lehen 🌟

We’re excited to highlight Addison Lehen, a 12th grade student at Munford High School and a dedicated Veterinary Science Vet Intern at the Munford Spay Neuter Clinic (MHS).

Addison joined our program in August of 2024, bringing with her a strong passion for animal care and a clear vision for her future. 🐾 Her love for animals and desire to become a veterinarian have driven her to fully invest in the hands-on learning opportunities our clinic provides.

Through her time in the clinic, Addison has developed valuable technical skills, including learning how to draw blood like a pro-a skill she is especially proud of as she continues to grow in confidence and ability. 💪

One of the things that stands out most about Addison is her reliability and patience. As she has gained experience, she has naturally stepped into a leadership role, helping guide and support newer or more nervous students in the lab. Her steady, encouraging presence makes a lasting impact on those around her. It is certainly noticed!

We are proud of the growth, dedication, and leadership Addison has shown and are excited to see all that she accomplishes in the future. 🐾💙
