The Pink Flamingo :: If A Beloved Pet Dies Under Improper Vet Care

I'd never thought about it until until this summer when I was so frustrated over the futile attempt to save Miss Piggy. If it were any other vet I would still be screaming. Fortunately, I know Miss Piggy received the finest and most loving care anyone could receive at a vet. When we lost her, they were as upset as was I. (I still miss her, so much). What happens if you have an incompetent vet? Also, what happens if you are living in Texas where the Vet Board is staffed by 'cronies' and complaints are dismissed over 90% of the time? You contact the Texas Vet Board Watch and hope for the best and realize you will be getting the shaft.

Does your state have a vet board watch?

FYI: Itchmo has info about those VA puppies that were rescued. If I were closer to VA, I would be looking for something for the parents.
