I think this change would be beneficial. Training on the job by a licensed veterinarian to this task could greatly relieve the strain on hospitals. The logic in this forum is flawed. The logic, education and training, presented by those opposed in this forum should also be applied to veterinarians. If applied this means no general practitioner should be performing any surgeries, treated anything endocrine related, dental extractions, chemotherapy, ultrasounds, etc. I favor this change if appropriate training is used an din a controlled setting.
