Guest guest Posted June 5, 2003 Report Share Posted June 5, 2003 URGENT LEGISLATIVE ALERT: LETTERS NEEDED BY JUNE 10! The United States Department of Agriculture and Markets recently issued proposed regulations that, if adopted, would require researchers, animal exhibitors, and breeders of dogs to maintain medical records for the animals under their care. Although the law currently requires these facilities to maintain a " program of adequate veterinary care, " it is difficult to ascertain whether it is being followed. By requiring that medical records be kept for these animals, we can better determine whether they are receiving necessary medical treatment; it would also allow USDA inspectors to cite those facilities that are not in compliance with the law.ASPCA News Alert readers, your help is needed to ensure that dogs at puppy mills and animals used in exhibition and research receive proper medical care. The USDA's deadline for public comments on the proposed requirements is June 10, and we understand there will be strong opposition by breeders, animal exhibitors and researchers--so please visit the <A HREF= " http://www.aspca.org/site/R?i=oW_BdYQF86kXSXLRAGHJvQ.. " >ASPCA Advocacy Center</A> today and send a letter of support for the regulations. ---------------------- " Uneducated people believe what they are told...
