Pawsitive Healing-Veterinary Rehabilitation’s Dr. Carla Rodrigues says, “It is an absolute honor to have the opportunity to collaborate with the Cultural Center of Ponte Vedra Beach on a community-driven project that will benefit our youth’s exposure to arts and culture. Pawsitive Healing’s vision and presence in San Marco is not just limited to aiding the pets of Jacksonville, it also influence the clientele and community positively. While offering advanced alternative options for seniors, geriatrics, and neurologic patients of any age, I pride my service on being present for clients’ needs as they navigate through the challenges that arise with our furry family members, being very mindful of the precious human-animal bond. Bark 4 Art is a perfect example of how we can all come together with a common goal of camaraderie and harmony. I look forward to a fun-filled day!”
CCPVB President and Executive Director Donna Guzzo said, “Partnering with Pawsitive Healing Clinic has been phenomenal to have visibility in the San Marco area of Duval County as we prepare to expand more services to the Jacksonville area. We have the clientele that can benefit from Dr. Rodriguez’s expertise as their pets get older or need alternative options. We are expecting folks from Duval and St. Johns to attend the event. It will be a family-pet-fun atmosphere to connect, engage, and experience. Our mission is to bring the arts to our community. This is exactly what we are doing. Success is imminent!”
