Description

Underdogs examines the expanding veterinary care initiatives serving underserved communities in North Carolina and Costa Rica, exploring how people living in or near poverty access and respond to these essential services. The book traces the evolution of animal welfare in the United States, where decades of focus on overpopulation control through euthanasia and sterilisation gave way to more comprehensive approaches. As pet sterilisation and basic veterinary care including vaccinations became more widespread by the early 2000s, new questions emerged about equity and access. This scholarly work from University of Georgia Press investigates how modern veterinary initiatives bridge gaps in healthcare for both animals and their families in economically disadvantaged areas, offering insights into the intersection of animal welfare, human poverty, and community health across different geographic and cultural contexts.
