Minneapolis Veterinary Hospital Hosts Fundraiser for Pet Project Rescue
Minneapolis Veterinary Hospital, located at 1030 Washington Avenue South, recently hosted a fundraising event for Pet Project Rescue. Pet Project Rescue is a no-kill, 501(c)(3) non-profit rescue which places homeless animals in foster care homes until they are adopted by their forever families.

Oscar, an 8 year old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, was the inspiration for the fund raising event. Georgiana is a Texas artist who paints animals in bold, joyous colors.

During the fundraising event, the Sanfords raised $1,900 for Pet Project Rescue. Funds cover animal care expenses, such as spaying/neutering prior to adoption.
In addition to dogs, Minneapolis Veterinary Hospital cares for other small animals such as rabbits, cats, guinea pigs and birds. Dr. Sanford offers advanced surgical techniques, cutting edge medical care and Stem Cell Certification for Arthritis in dogs and cats. He also serves on the Board for Pet Accolades, an organization that provides service dogs for those with invisible disabilities.
