As Dr. Khairoun says, "We’re not just saving an animal, we’re saving a family."

Inside, Dr. Ahmed Khairoun and his team face cases rarely seen in Western clinics—infectious diseases, severe wounds, and colic caused by plastic ingestion.

Many owners walk 10–20 miles just to reach the Fondouk, hoping for expert care that could mean survival for both their animals and their families.

In Fez, Morocco, the American Fondouk is a sanctuary for working donkeys, mules, and horses—the backbone of local communities. These animals aren’t just transport; they plough fields, carry water, and support families' livelihoods.

Limited free spaces are available—book now and don’t miss this unforgettable night! 🔗 vet-oa.com/voacon #VOACON2025 #VeterinaryCare #VetNetworking #OsteoarthritisCare

Plus, Nupsala is sponsoring a happy hour, serving cheese and nibbles for a perfect end to the evening.

VOACON isn’t just about learning—it’s about community. On 21st May, the Blue Paw Extravaganza, hosted by Nupsala, brings an evening of celebration, entertainment, and connection at Holywell Park Conference Centre, Loughborough.

This year’s theme, A Celebration of Motion & Mobility, reflects the journey from stiffness to freedom. Expect a buffet-style dinner, cabaret entertainment, and a photo booth to capture the memories.

That’s what generative AI brings to the table, and in our latest article, Dr. Chris Shivelton Queen (The Nerdy Vet) breaks down how AI is already changing veterinary practice.
