Join SCAVMA as we help support the the AVMA and the Children's Miracle Network with

The Josh Project


The Josh Project is a joint program between the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) and the Children's Miracle Network called, "Pets Helping Kids, Kids Helping Pets." It was designed by Knoxville veterinarian Dr. Randy Lange, and the Project gives a kit to children facing serious medical challenges. This kit is comprised of a stuffed toy Golden Retriever and the book, "I'll Be O.K.," which features a dog that is facing surgery as the main character. The purpose of the book and the dog is to provide comfort to these children during a very scary time.
This fall SCAVMA will be kicking off the year by having Dr Lange come and introduce us all to this project, as well as to Josh himself (a real life Golden Retriever). There will be more information coming soon, but in the mean time, if you need more information you can visit the homepage for this charity at http://www.joshandfriends.com
