After 30 years of service to the College of Veterinary Medicine and the VMC, Dr. Guillermo Couto
retired on August 31. Through his teaching, research, clinical service, and outreach, he made a great
impact on Ohio State and the veterinary profession. In particular, his founding of the Greyhound
Health and Wellness Program (GHWP) and the Animal Blood Bank are legacies that will continue to
represent his passion and tireless commitment.

Dr. Couto earned his DVM in 1976 from Buenos Aires University and completed an oncology residency at the
University of California-Davis in 1983. He was then hired as an assistant professor in the Department of Veterinary Clinical Sciences at Ohio State, where he established the Oncology/Hematology Service. Board certified in internal medicine and oncology, Dr. Couto was named a full member of Ohio State’s Comprehensive Cancer in 1987, and he was promoted to the rank of professor in 1995.

Dr. Couto has a special place in his heart for Greyhounds, and the GHWP has advanced Greyhound health and well-being worldwide through research, education, clinical care, and outreach. Dr. Couto also founded the Animal Blood Bank Program at the VMC, which offers resources, education, and consultation on transfusion medicine in dogs and cats. By providing blood products for ill or injured animals, the program has become a resource for veterinary practices around the country.

As either a principal investigator or co-investigator, Dr. Couto’s funded research includes awards of over
three million dollars from more than 50 agencies. His scholarly contributions include over 150 book chapters, approximately 150 peer-reviewed scientific journal articles, and 130 reviews and abstracts. He and his colleagues at Ohio State have contributed more than 30 scientific publications regarding Greyhounds, representing a large number of the scholarly articles published on the subject.

Dr. Couto’s excellence in teaching earned him many awards, including the Omega Tau Sigma Fraternity
National Gamma Award for Distinguished Service to the Veterinary Profession (twice), the Ohio State Faculty
Teaching Award, and most recently the 2012 Faculty Achievement Award from the American Association of
Veterinary Clinicians.
