Moderating this forum must be excruiating at times.
I try to stay out because I have no breeding experience. But I have a lot of people experience. People come here as an alternative to/in addition to/before speaking to a vet. So maybe making it a "clinical forum" with different rules, responses would be more in line with how an experienced vet would communicate them. In those convrsations, most vets wouldn't be judgemental and most clients would not be defensive. I think it would be sad to have to do that tho.
Thanks for never giving up!
