Hi Everyone, New member here - Karen Rabbitt. I live in Bethel Spring with my working sheepdogs, LGD's and sheep. We moved here from Florida! I found this...
Hi Karen and welcome! Thanks for sharing your story with us. I know there are many members who are equally as frustrated as you, thus the reason this group...
I found this group after a frustrating week going round and round with a good Vet > ... Karen, All vets know the duration of immunity on vaccines, which is...
Hello, Thank you for approving my request to join your group. We moved here to Van Buren County in June 2007. I had rabies done at that time and when told it...
Welcome. Just to let you know....the TN law says every 3 years. Others can give you lots more info. There are vets here that will give 3 year rabies Cherie ...
... Hi Kate and Welcome! I am sorry you have had a bad experience regarding the rabies vaccination. Unfortunately, there are a many vets out there who choose...
Although I have been aware of the discussions about yearly vaccines for some time, I have only recently decided to find out for myself exactly how our state...
... Great job, Dee! I know Nashville news stations will often pick up on stories from the town newspapers in the surrounding areas. Keep your fingers crossed...
I am aware that individual towns and cities can enforce more restrictive laws and I am working on that. It is too late for a bill to be amended for this...
... The list owner, Christie, and I have both been in touch with our receptive legislator, Henry Fincher. Perhaps they can form a triad to gather some steam....
Fl [where we moved here from] has 3 yr vaccinations in the county we lived in, and the rabies cert indicates 3 yrs. Each year you take the cert in and they...
Be sure to read the end of this post on Tennessee laws. Of course , we already know this!!! *PERMISSION TO CROSS-POST * ** There have been many developments in...
... Ah, I would tend to agree, however, this Vet is new to TN and "I" saw her staff trying to lie about it. So, I have 2 back-ups, one that recommends "no...
... Hope you have better luck that I did in Union County. I talked to the guy in charge of setting up the Rabies clinics. He flat out told me that all he had...
As I mentioned earlier, I wrote a "Letter To The Editor" which was printed in our local newspaper. My intention was to bring an awareness of our state and...
Hi Dee, Plenty of moral support coming from us! OK, a few questions, can you share your article? I ask as I am writing one for this area. I spoke to both HD...
I will find the article. Do you want me to email it to you? Also, how do I find out if there is someone to complain to about this? It just seems so unethical...
OK, email it if you can please. I am curious as to how you worded it. It's not "unethical" for them to refuse treatment, they can choose, it's their business....
I'd love to read your article as well. Sounds like your vet has over reacted. I think I would also be offended that the paper edited your letter, it's NOT...
... In the last two days, I have had phone calls from local veterinarians (one call came before 7:00 am this morning!) and the vets were very, very angry with...
No, the editing was done entirely to reduce the length of the article. Itwas rather long. I spoke with the editor this morning and he is going to call my vet...
The article is too long to fit on my scanner and I cannot email it to anyone. It was in the April 3 edition of the Dickson Herald and they are supposed to have...
... That's okay, we can trust that you used valid facts to support your position. That is key. TN state law is written as this: "(i) Nothing in this section...
I tried to access it online but got nowhere. Kept sending me to the Tennessean but would not give me anything on the archives. Becky ... From: "d_stopher"...
