Dogs can get spiffed up and ready for Thanksgiving at the NCTA Dog Spa on Nov. 20.
Veterinary technician students will bath dogs, trim toenails, and clean the animal's ears during individual sessions from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Grooming occurs at the Veterinary Teaching Clinic of the Nebraska College of Technical Agriculture in Curtis.
The project is hosted by the Student Technicians of Veterinary Medicine Association, said Hannah Murray, STVMA president.
'It is a community service, a fundraiser for the Vet Tech Program and STVMA Club, plus provides us the opportunity to apply our hands-on animal care skills,' says Murray, a second-year student from North Bend.
Dogs must have a current rabies vaccination, administered at least one month prior to Spa Day.
Donations are suggested at $5 per dog. No acting veterinarian will be present to treat or address health conditions.
Use of facial masks is requested since the bathing area is indoors.
