To my animal loving friends....please be aware.

To all of my animal loving friends - were you all aware that it is actually illegal for Vets to carry controlled substances with them to your location. What this basically means is that if your animal is too sick, broken, injured, etc...to travel to the Vets clinic, they are actually not legally allowed to carry any sort of substances out to help that animal. This includes euthanasia drugs. This is probably one of the stupidest laws I have ever heard of. Obviously most vets agree because I haven't seen many that follow it. But they shouldn't have to be concerned with whether they will be "caught" or not. They should be allowed to do their job to the fullest. This includes being able to carry the necessary drugs to put an animal down if need be. I don't know what the stupid lawmaker that inacted this thing thought people with sick horses or cows were supposed to do. It's time to move out of the 1970's....let's get this changed! 
 
This is a link to a site that allows you to write an email or letter to your legislator to ask them to take some action to end that. Sign it and send it. For the sake of our animals.
