Ashley Book, PA-C

Since 2003, I have been been a full-time, clinical Physician Assistant for a busy orthopaedic surgeon in San Antonio, TX.  Rescuing animals is my passion.  I've fostered hundreds of critical needs medical dogs, special needs dogs and hospice dogs, since 2012.  I have run hundreds of vaccination clinics for rescues including San Antonio Pets Alive!, as well as many other high volume rescues.  I have also spent years as a medical director for one of those rescues and am relied upon by many other rescues for medical advise on the most complicated medical cases.  My goals in rescue is to assist rescues with the care of medical fosters and to use my years of medical training and experience to advise rescues whenever needed. 

I started this transport company in order to further assist rescue efforts of removing animals out of the extremely overpopulated areas of Texas and other southern states.  I also work tirelessly to make this the safest, highest quality, most dependable company of all of the transports (in Texas and beyond).

In past, I have struggled with rescues questioning my policies and procedures when it comes to vaccinations.  My policies follow vaccine manufacturer guidelines and veterinarian recommendations. I am always more than willing to have an educated conversation, provided there is ample clinical research documentation that proves the rational behind the question about my policy.  Please do not be "that problem rescue."
