Great news! But reading the new law, isn't that what Vets should have been doing all along? Maybe I am spoiled by my Vet...or maybe I just always ask millions of questions!

Yes, it's what veterinarians should be doing, but most don't. This is the first legislation of its type in the nation that I'm aware of, hopefully it won't be the last.
