As a large animal veterinarian in one of the most densely populated agricultural areas in the state, new regulation on haul-in facilities is concerning. I utilize a large, well built, well established haul-in facility in my practice on a daily basis. Having a haul-in facility allows my colleagues and I to see more patients in a timely manner that we ever could running from one end to the other of a 120-mile practice area. Our facility is already inspected in the same manner that our small animal clinic is inspected. There seems to be no need for additional regulation/inspection. Additional regulations and inspections on these facilities is only going to bar their use and further add to the problem of inconsistent availability of large animal veterinarians.
