Join us at Fetch for The Music That Moves You!

In dynamic Charlotte, North Carolina—and across the country, throughout 2026—we’re celebrating the people, passions, and moments that keep veterinary professionals in motion.

Music is life. It’s in our work and our play. And Fetch is where education strikes a chord, ideas resonate, and our community finds its groove.

This is your chance to learn something that changes how you practice, meet someone who reminds you why you started, and discover a rhythm all your own.

It’s time for Fetch Charlotte. Turn it up—and feel The Music That Moves You!

Mentor-Led, Practice-Ready CE

Fetch faculty are brilliant clinicians and scientists. They’re also deeply caring educators who understand your world and what you need to advance your career.

Face-to-face interaction. One-on-one conversations. Real talk about the level of care you’ve always wanted to deliver. This is immersive, inclusive, practical, approachable, and applicable medical education.

And you won’t believe the insightful connections you’ll discover through music.
