[QUOTE="TexasJerseyMilker, post: 1791931, member: 42782"] I think overseas pharmacys will be all over this. When we first moved here the only large animal vet in the county, who only sees large animals on Thursdays, would not come out and put to sleep a horse that had fallen into a ravine and hind legs paralyzed. Why? Because we did not have a patient client relationship. My husband had to shoot him. Needless to say I am not thrilled with this vet. This year, she would have charged almost $200 dollars to Bangs vaccinate my heifer and thats if I brought her there. If not, add a $350 farm call fee. I cancled that appointment. I have always vaccinated and wormed my own animals, thank God. Will that be the next thing that is illegal? I don't give random ABX to animals, I'm a nurse. I have a couple of dairy cows. They might and probably will at some point in their lives get mastitis. I can send off milk samples to lab that can ID the pathogen and tell me what ABX to use. My only hope is my local elderly small animal dog vet who used to see large animals. I have relationship with him. He vaxed my dog for rabies and also told me how to save the life of a scouring calf. I hope he will script whatever the lab says for mastitis. If not, I am ordering from overseas to have ABX on hand. I observe that both Canada and Austrailia have more Socialisic governments. [/QUOTE]
