Vet who abused animals suspended 10 months

Quote:It doesn't look like the OCV is going to change its stance. It is presumably putting "closing ranks" above animal protection.

That is it exactly. They look after their own no matter what. They will protect an animal abuser because he is a vet animal abuser.
If they think what they did is satisfying the pet owners they are very mistaken.

Quote:Right! 'People Power' has to come into force! With the influence social media has nowadays, people need to get together in large numbers and literally splatter this man, his name and his face, all over Facebook, and Twitter. The name of the veterinary surgery also....although he may be able to open yet another business somewhere else...but his deeds shall follow him.

This is the only way to bring him to justice. I think people in the area are pushing for some kind of action. Certainly all of us can do our part by posting and sharing what happened. His name will be known. I wouldn't let him touch an animal of mine. I doubt if anyone in St Catharines would go to him now. We know what we saw in the video, but I am sure there were many more incidents of abuse that we didn't see.

He is sorry....sorry that he got caught.  How could he get through vet college and have an attitude like that. Maybe we need to look at how vets are trained. After all the OCV is not reacting all that strongly to this.
