California Vet Med Board trying to prevent rehab for pets

The California Veterinary Medical Board is trying to prevent anyone other than a veterinarian from performing any type of rehab therapy for our pets.  This includes swim therapy, chiropractic, laser therapy, underwater treadmill, and other therapeutic modalities.  Most vets don’t know about therapy and are happy to refer to someone who does.  Most vets don’t want to go back to school to take courses on rehab therapy.  This means that it will be much more difficult to find someone to help our pets when they need it the most!!!

Please contact your State Senator today and tell them you want them to vote “NO” on AB 1980, as amended on June 7, 2010. For the sake of our pets.  Voting takes place on Monday, Aug. 9th, so please do this ASAP!!  And spread the word.
