MESSAGE FROM BOARD PRESIDENT

To My Valued Colleagues and Our Supportive Partners:

It is with great pride that I welcome you to WVC Vegas 2026, marking the end of my term as president of the Viticus Group Board of Directors. This year, more than ever, we recognize the deep responsibility we have to honor our past while boldly building our future.

My journey in this role has been an honor of a lifetime and during the most exciting period of Viticus Group’s history. With our expansion to Nashville this year, I recognize that my contributions as your president has been guided by those who have served before me.

At WVC Vegas, we are celebrating the distinguished service of Dr. Dennis McCurnin, DVM, our honored conference namesake. Dr. McCurnin, along with our pioneers, laid the foundation of dedication and excellence that makes the WVC experience possible. His decades of passion are not just history; they paved the path that helped build our present and future.

As I look ahead, my vision for Viticus Group is one of strategic growth and global connectivity. This vision is reality with the expansion into the Southeast and East Coast, launching our new education centers and additional WVC in Nashville this summer. This step is crucial to extending our educational reach and providing our signature hands-on training to a wider community.

But our ultimate focus is the Centennial in 2028. The WVC 2026 is our launchpad—a commitment to transformation. We are challenging ourselves to establish elevated standards for the next 100 years of veterinary continuing education. This means not only embracing new technologies and data but also ensuring that every colleague, from early career to seasoned veterinary professionals, feels supported, confident and connected.

Thank you for your trust, your passion and your commitment to lifelong learning. I look forward to connecting with you in Las Vegas (and Nashville!) as we honor our past and embark on our most transformative future yet.

With gratitude,

Travis McDermott, DVM

Hello and Welcome to WVC Vegas!

On behalf of the entire Viticus Group team, I am honored and grateful to welcome you to WVC Vegas…the 98th annual conference that is especially meaningful as we celebrate an extraordinary legacy of service.

For decades, WVC has been synonymous with the highest caliber of veterinary education, and that standard is a direct reflection of the selfless commitment of leaders like Dr. Dennis McCurnin.

Naming the conference after Dr. McCurnin is the highest honor that Viticus Group bestows. For more than 50 years, his steady guidance, personal sacrifices and high ideals have consistently elevated the WVC Annual Conference. His vision has truly shaped WVC into the premier, hands-on event it is today, consistently benefiting the entire veterinary community.

You will find our signature, record-setting number of hands-on training labs—from large animal to exotics—as essential as ever, providing you with real-world, practical training.

Thank you for joining us in Las Vegas this year, where you can expect outstanding continuing education, valuable connections and a collective celebration of lasting professional legacy.

Solovecin (cefovecin sodium)

Antimicrobial for Subcutaneous Injection in Dogs and Cats Only

Brief Summary (For Full Prescribing Information, see package insert)

CAUTION: Federal law restricts this drug to use by or on the order of a licensed veterinarian.

DESCRIPTION: Cefovecin sodium is a semi-synthetic broad-spectrum antibacterial agent from the cephalosporin class of chemotherapeutic agents. Each ml of Solovecin reconstituted lyophile contains cefovecin sodium equivalent to 80.0 mg cefovecin, methylparaben 1.8 mg (preservative), propylparaben 0.2 mg (preservative), sodium citrate dihydrate 5.8 mg and citric acid monohydrate 0.1 mg, sodium hydroxide or hydrochloric acid as required to adjust pH.

INDICATIONS: Dogs: Solovecin is indicated for the treatment of skin infections (secondary superficial pyoderma, abscesses, and wounds) in dogs caused by susceptible strains of Staphylococcus intermedius and Streptococcus canis (Group G).

Cats: Solovecin is indicated for the treatment of skin infections (wounds and abscesses) in cats caused by susceptible strains of Pasteurella multocida.

CONTRAINDICATIONS: Solovecin is contraindicated in dogs and cats with known allergy to cefovecin or to beta-lactam (penicillins and cephalosporins) group antimicrobials. Anaphylaxis has been reported with the use of this product in foreign market experience. If an allergic reaction or anaphylaxis occurs, Solovecin should not be administered again and appropriate therapy should be instituted. Anaphylaxis may require treatment with epinephrine and other emergency measures, including oxygen, intravenous fluids, intravenous antihistamine, corticosteroids, and airway management, as clinically indicated. Adverse reactions may require prolonged treatment due to the prolonged systemic drug clearance (65 days).

WARNINGS: Not for use in humans. Keep this and all drugs out of reach of children. Consult a physician in case of accidental human exposure. For subcutaneous use in dogs and cats only. Antimicrobial drugs, including penicillins and cephalosporins, can cause allergic reactions in sensitized individuals. To minimize the possibility of allergic reactions, those handling such antimicrobials, including cefovecin, are advised to avoid direct contact of the product with the skin and mucous membranes.

PRECAUTIONS: Prescribing antibacterial drugs in the absence of a proven or strongly suspected bacterial infection is unlikely to provide benefit to treated animals and may increase the risk of the development of drug-resistant animal pathogens. The safe use of Solovecin in dogs or cats less than 4 months of age and in breeding or lactating animals has not been determined. Safety has not been established for IM or IV administration. The long-term effects on injection sites have not been determined. Solovecin is slowly eliminated from the body, approximately 65 days is needed to eliminate 97% of the administered dose from the body. Animals experiencing an adverse reaction may need to be monitored for this duration. Solovecin has been shown in an experimental in vitro system to result in an increase in free concentrations of carprofen, furosemide, doxycycline and ketoconazole. Concurrent use of these or other drugs that have a high degree of protein-binding (e.g. NSAIDs, propofol, cardiac, anticonvulsant, and behavioral medications) may compete with cefovecin binding and cause adverse reactions. Positive direct Coombs’ test results and false positive reactions for glucose in the urine have been reported during treatment with some cephalosporin antimicrobials. Cephalosporin antimicrobials may also cause falsely elevated urine protein determinations. Some antimicrobials, including cephalosporins, can cause lowered albumin values due to interference with certain testing methods. Occasionally, cephalosporins and NSAIDs have been associated with myelotoxicity, thereby creating a toxic neutropenia. Other hematological reactions seen with cephalosporins include neutropenia, anemia, hypoprothrombinemia, thrombocytopenia, prolonged prothrombin time (PT) and partial thromboplastin time (PTT), platelet dysfunction and transient increases in serum aminotransferases.

ADVERSE REACTIONS: Dogs: A total of 320 dogs, ranging in age from 8 weeks to 19 years, were included in a field study safety analysis. Adverse reactions reported in dogs treated with cefovecin sodium and the active control are: Lethargy, Anorexia/Decreased Appetite, Vomiting, Diarrhea, Blood in Feces, Dehydration, Flatulence, Increased Borborygmi. Cats: A total of 291 cats, ranging in age from 2.4 months (one cat) to 21 years, were included in the field study safety analysis. Adverse reactions reported in cats treated with cefovecin sodium and the active control are: Vomiting, Diarrhea, Anorexia/ Decreased Appetite, Lethargy, Hyper/Acting Strange, Inappropriate Urination.

FOREIGN MARKET EXPERIENCE: The following adverse events were reported voluntarily during post-approval use of the product in dogs and cats in foreign markets: death, tremors/ataxia, seizures, anaphylaxis, acute pulmonary edema, facial edema, injection site reactions (alopecia, scabs, necrosis, and erythema), hemolytic anemia, salivation, pruritus, lethargy, vomiting, diarrhea, and inappetance.

CONTACT INFORMATION: To report suspected adverse reactions, to obtain a Safety Data Sheet (SDS), or for technical assistance, contact Dechra Veterinary Products at 1-866-933-2472. For additional information about adverse drug experience reporting for animal drugs, contact FDA at 1-888-FDA-VETS or http://www.fda.gov/reportanimalae

Reach for Zen Reach for

Trade Show Overload?

Serenity is just steps away.

Step off the floor and into the Zen Garden. Let sound, scent, story, and science guide you through a sensory journey into multimodal strategies for managing canine allergic dermatitis. Visit Booth #1640 Go Beyond. Make Life Better.

INDICATIONS: Zenrelia is indicated for control of pruritus associated with allergic dermatitis and control of atopic dermatitis in dogs at least 12 months of age.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION: Read the entire package insert, including the Boxed Warning, before using this drug. For full prescribing information call 1 888 545 5973 or visit the Elanco booth.

WARNING: INADEQUATE IMMUNE RESPONSE TO VACCINES. Based on results of the vaccine response study, dogs receiving Zenrelia are at risk of an inadequate immune response to vaccines. Discontinue Zenrelia for at least 28 days to 3 months prior to vaccination and withhold Zenrelia for at least 28 days after vaccination. Dogs should be up to date on vaccinations prior to starting Zenrelia. Do not use in dogs less than 12 months old or dogs with a serious infection. Monitor dogs for infections because Zenrelia may increase susceptibility to infections, including adenoviral hepatitis and pancreatitis. Neoplastic conditions (benign and malignant) were observed during clinical studies. Consider the risks and benefits of treatment in dogs with a history of recurrence of these conditions. The most common adverse reactions were vomiting, diarrhea and lethargy. Zenrelia has not been evaluated in breeding, pregnant, or lactating dogs and concurrent use with glucocorticoids, cyclosporine, or other systemic immunosuppressive agents has not been tested.

Grab your Vet Detective Pocket Map and navigate the hall and visit the designated booths with Vet Detective balloons and floor stickers. As a Vet Detective, your mission is to track down Mr. Viticat by visiting participating booths, gathering clues, and following his trail. Once you’ve visited all the booths, bring your completed clue card to the Exhibit Hall Info Booth for the final clue. There, your badge will be scanned, and you’ll be entered into our cash prize drawings.

H elp return Mr. Viticat to safety—and stay tuned for our grand prize drawings on social media on Wednesday, February 18 at 1:30p.

Your safety is our first concern at Viticus Group. Although no emergency situation is anticipated, you should be aware of the following safety systems and procedures.

Fire Detection: Mandalay Bay facilities are equipped with sophisticated electronic fire detection and alarm systems. State-of-the-art fire suppression systems control and extinguish fires of major consequence. Portable fire extinguishers are also strategically placed throughout the property.

Evacuation

If an emergency warrants evacuation of the Convention Center, its magnitude is confirmed by Mandalay Bay Security and communicated to Convention Center personnel. Announcements regarding any perceived emergency, regardless of severity, are played over the Convention Center public address system at three notification levels:

Initial emergency while the source of the problem is investigated (female voice) − no action required.

Non-emergency when the source of an alarm has been identified and the issue resolved (female voice) − no action required.

Exits

Evacuation when the source of an alarm has been identified as cause to evacuate the building (male voice) − evacuation required.

Evacuation Safety

• Remain calm and proceed in an orderly manner.

• Leave the facility through the nearest exit as instructed.

• Do not take time to retrieve personal property.

• Do not attempt to use elevators or escalators.

• Assist elderly and disabled persons.

• Listen for instructions via the public address system.

• Proceed directly to the designated assembly area located in the parking lot area, just outside the Shark Reef entrance (pictured below).

• Do not try to reenter the building until an “all clear” message is given.

Emergency exits throughout the Convention Center are clearly marked, and signs remain visible even during power outages.
