FVTA Annual Membership Meeting 

The FVTA Annual Membership Meeting will be held at the NAVC on January 14 at 5 PM in the Crystal Ballroom at the World Marriot. Please join us so that we can show you what we have done this past year and what we hope the next year will bring.  The Executive Board will be there to meet you and answer any questions you may have. The first 50 Attendees will receive a gift and we will be having a couple of drawings for some great prizes.


2012 is a Certification Renewal Year!

2012 is a Certification renewal year! The FVTA is on the move and we want you to be part of the excitement that is happening in our profession. The Executive board is really trying to reach out to our membership with a new website that is updated monthly and a Facebook page that has new postings every week. Increasing communication with each other is one of our primary goals. We are a large state with thousands of technicians and we want to reach all of them. The future or our organization is looking great but we need technicians to support their organization by certifying with the FVTA.

Current CVTs should have received a postcard with information and an email describing the online process. If you did not it is because we do not have a current email or address for you. Please contact us to update your information in our database so that your renewal process will be seamless.


Pawparrazzi
I got Mr. Darcy from a local rescue group. They told me he was a Chihuahua mix, I knew something was up when he kept getting bigger. He is 2 years old and he has always looked like a little old man. I got a free DNA test and decided to send it off just to see. He came back as a mutt for at least 4 generations. Yes, he has the worse bite I have ever seen (a combination of a wry bite and mandibular or brachygnathism I can’t really tell but his lower canine is always visible). He gets a lot of comments about that either people think he is so ugly he is cute or they think he is getting ready to attack them.  When I got him I did not know if we were going to make it, he was the most behaviorally challenging dog I have ever had and still is sometimes but love and devotion has one out! He has one sister Miss Lizzy who he adores and is his constant playmate. If you are wondering how I got their names, I am a huge Jane Austen fan!!
