Commenter: VA Pet Owner

Who is worse, the vets or the board?
 

What is the protection for pet owners?  Since the board has condone the activity of the vet that killed the kitten, what has that vet learned from this experience.  Will this vet kill another pet and then will the board condone that behavior?  How can this board sleep at night knowing the public is not protected from this incompetent vet?  I just hope it is not my vet.  I would have thought that any with any sense, would know to call an owner if the pet was not doing so good.
