“I’m not sure why you even care about bringing your animals to the vet to get the shots.  You yourself stated that you can easily buy rabies vaccines online”

No; only vets can buy rabies vaccine

“I can’t imagine why you’d ever feel the need to let them see the inside of a vet’s office.”

I don’t, except for rabies vaccination

“I’m sure that this whole incident could have been cleared up with an additional phone call or other method of personal communication. “

I didn’t have to; when I said I knew there was no State law, she changed her story.

“I wonder why you felt the need to give everyone on the chatlist the contact information for the NC veterinary medical board.  “

I was asked.

“You say that you find the ethical standards of veterinarians to be lower than those of physicians.”

Yes, and I gave the example of selling drugs at a profit and refusing to give prescriptions.

“Coming from a person who stirs up controversy out of nothing, I take that statement with a large grain of salt.”

I simply stated the facts.  Two vet offices claim there was a State law and then insist on an unnecessary office visit.

Just the facts, Maam
