About Us
The Sled Dog Medicine Club at the University of Minnesota was started by three students who realized their passion for winter canine sports medicine and wanted to share it with others.
We hold wet labs in the fall focused on general physical exams and orthopedic exams on dogs, have speakers throughout the year, and attend races and work with the race vets to check on the dogs and treat any problems as they arise. It is a great way to get into sports medicine in a non-threatening environment with the potential to see hundreds of dogs in a day vs a handful in private practice. |
