Dr. Sophie Putland was a daughter, a sister, a friend, and a beloved vet, who tragically took her own life in September 2021.
The pressure of the veterinary profession, including client abuse, became overwhelming for her.
​
On average, a vet dies by suicide approximately every 12 weeks.
​
Family and friends established Sophie’s Legacy to honour her memory and advocate for change within the industry.
Sophie's Legacy is determined to see all veterinary staff thrive.
Happy vets equals happy pets too, right?
​
This cause has resonated worldwide, and is already making a difference.
​
Sick As A Dog is proud to partner with this vital charity.
