Upcoming Events

The CVBMDC invites you to a highly valuable webinar focused on estate planning for your pets, led by attorney James Alder. This very special event will cover practical, pet-specific planning that ensures your pets are protected no matter what the future holds.

This session goes far beyond a basic will. You will walk away understanding:

  • How to legally ensure your dog is cared for if something happens to you
  • The difference between a will and a pet trust, and which one you actually need
  • How to choose and legally designate a guardian for your pet
  • Common mistakes pet owners make that leave their animals vulnerable
  • How to set aside funds specifically for your pet’s care
  • What happens to pets when there is no plan in place
  • What happens when there is a breeder contract in place requiring the pet to be returned to the breeder
