Honoring Dr. Sophia Yin’s legacy after 10 years

It’s been ten years since we lost visionary, Dr. Sophia Yin. Her groundbreaking teachings continue to guide many through CattleDog Publishing®, Low Stress Handling®, the Small Animal Veterinary Nerdbook, and the Veterinary Information Network (VIN). Her enduring legacy is celebrated and perpetuated through the VIN Foundation Dr. Sophia Yin Memorial Fund. Her passion, science-based teachings, and experiences transformed the veterinary and pet professional communities. Without knowing their origin, many continue to use her techniques daily.

Upon Dr. Sophia Yin’s untimely death in 2014, her mother, Jackie, chose the VIN Foundation to honor her memory by creating the Dr. Sophia Yin Memorial Fund and making the VIN Foundation the new home of the Small Animal Veterinary Nerdbook. Donations to the Dr. Sophia Yin Memorial Fund support the VIN Foundation’s Vets4Vets® resources which help veterinary colleagues face challenges such as those that consumed Dr. Yin. The Small Animal Veterinary Nerdbook provides veterinarians and veterinary students with the critical information needed to help animals as they move forward in their veterinary careers.
