The Distinguished Service Award (DSA) is the highest honor MVMA bestows on a member. It is awarded annually to one member of the MVMA known for their accomplishments to the profession and the association and who has made an outstanding contribution to the service of humankind.

MVMA Merit Awards have recognized a variety of personal and professional contributions by veterinarians and others in the veterinary and animal-caring communities.
