Animal Health News (AHN) was created to address a long-standing challenge in veterinary and animal-health communications: ensuring that important industry announcements are visible, accessible, and easy to reference in one trusted place.
Founders Kristen Holder, Nathan Altadonna, and Catherine Haskins came together through years of work across veterinary media, marketing, and industry research. Their early efforts focused on building Connext.vet, one of the most comprehensive databases of continuing education events and key opinion leaders in animal health. That work provided deep insight into how marketers, communicators, and media operate—and revealed a consistent gap.
While material developments such as product launches, leadership changes, IPOs, earnings, and other company milestones were being announced, there was no centralized destination purpose-built for the animal-health industry where verified, company-supplied announcements could live in a consistent, reliable format.
Animal Health News was created to fill that gap.
The site serves as a centralized reference point for material animal-health announcements across veterinary, companion animal, food animal, equine, and consumer sectors—bringing verified, company-supplied updates together in one consistent, easy-to-navigate location for industry professionals and the media.
Animal Health Newswire is a press release distribution service built exclusively for veterinary medicine and animal health.
It provides targeted visibility for verified, company-supplied announcements—such as product launches, research milestones, leadership updates, earnings, and other material developments—without the noise of general-interest newswires.
