This Pride Month, the Rutgers Animal Welfare Judging Team celebrates love, inclusion, & compassion — for people and animals alike 🏳️‍🌈

Animal welfare is rooted in empathy, respect, and creating a world where every living being is treated with dignity. We’re proud to support a community where everyone belongs and can show up as their authentic selves!

Love is love. Kindness has no boundaries 💜

It is both my favorite and least favorite day of the year, graduation. I consider myself so lucky to watch these students grow from new, timid students to confident, close-knit, forever friends. As much as I wish I could just keep them around forever, I am so excited to see what these two will do post-Rutgers!

will be attending University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine in the fall. And will continue working at her vet clinic before applying for vet school this summer. I can’t wait to see all the amazing things they do!

It is never goodbye on this team. It’s just until the next big thing we have to tell each other or funny joke to send in the group chat, but I will miss seeing you both at practice each week. Thankfully it was so hot today I have no more water left to give to tears 😅😭

Welfare team forever 💚
