Things we have learned from the AbVMA since the meeting:

The ABVMA has made concessions previously on the use of the term "Complimentary" for veterinary practices partnering with Humane Societies in the interest of promoting new pet owners establishing a relationship with a veterinary practice. As long as any practice wanting to participate was given the opportunity (no exclusivity) and the materials were not widely distributed other than directly to new adoptive pet parents, the use of the term complimentary exam is permitted.

The EASAV EHS Liaison committee will be meeting in January to edit the Adoption certificate and move forward with the next steps.

If you are an EASAV Voting member & would like to join the EASAV EHS Liaison committee, email Smokey at info@easav.ca.
