Oppose - Virginia LVTs currently receive instruction in behavior
 

This proposal creates a redundant requirement. Virginia LVTs receive behavioral training as part of their required schooling from an accredited program. This requirement is taught by educationprofessionals who are best suited to assess student proficiency as opposed to behaviorists who strive to achieve animal/owner compliance.
