Animal Welfare Position Statements
Animal welfare is a human responsibility that encompasses all aspects of animal well-being, including proper housing, management, nutrition, disease prevention, responsible care, humane handling, and, where necessary, humane euthanasia.
Veterinarians, as advocates of animal welfare, have a responsibility to promote the humane treatment of animals and can demonstrate this commitment on a daily basis.
Animal welfare advocacy is a priority of the CVMA. Through its Animal Welfare Committee, the CVMA concentrates its efforts on developing guidelines and standards that address the welfare, humane treatment, and care of animals.
