However it is not just in the shelter he is working so hard to bring about change to how strays and animals in general are treated, but as you can see here. Occasionally he gets out of the clinic and shelter and is an educator to the next generation of Croatian vets. Miro takes along his own rescue dog Kira who he saved from a life of fighting in Croatia, what better example to use than his lovely dog.
In Croatia as we all know the level of abuse and cruelty is horrendous, much of this is down to attitudes among the general public. Many veterinarians still have a very clinical attitude when it comes to veterinary care and the handling of animals, lacking the sympathy and understanding that vets such as Miro have. This stems from old school teachings from old school professors. However times are slowly changing and universities are requesting the help of Vets just like Miro to teach their students.
By Miro educating the next generation of Croatian vets and teaching them as well as being clinical they must be sympathetic to each animal as well, this can only be a good thing for these young vets future patients and in turn, they will be projecting the right message to their future clients about animal welfare.
Below is the translation from the article:
