PetTrio Charity & Alexandre Contreras Drop In on Ferguson Senior High’s Vet Assistant Program

The morning bell had barely finished echoing through Ferguson Senior High when the classroom door swung open to reveal a familiar face in South Florida animal‑care circles: Alexandre Contreras—founder of PetTrio Charity, longtime veterinary technician, and creator of Kliptrio.

Students in the school’s Vet Assistant Program expected a routine lab on surgical‑instrument care; instead, they enjoyed a masterclass in passion‑driven careers. Alexandre shared stories from two decades on the clinic floor, how a single idea—helping pets—grew into award‑winning inventions, and the importance of community outreach. Amplifying Veterinary Assistant education with county animal‑services resources—creating healthier pets, empowered professionals, and a stronger community. 

Stay tuned for more updates on PetTrio’s ongoing work with young veterinary professionals and community clinics worldwide.
