UPDATE ON ROMI'S STORY
Washington State Veterinary Board Dismisses 12-part complaint and 135 documents with "No Violation" found
From Ginger S., Romi's mom:
For those of
you who are aware of and/or interested in my filing a complaint with
the State of Washington, Veterinary Board of Governors on 4/28/04 against
the 'guilty parties' for the needless/senseless and horrific death of my
sole companion Rottweiler, ROMI, on 4/25/04, I was informed on 9/22/05
after inquiring on 9/12/05 that a decision had been made on 5/09/05 that,
despite my filing the 12 part and 135 documents/exhibits fully supporting
all of my allegations with hard evidence, it "was
dismissed/closed" with a single conference call as "'No
Violation Determined'" .
For those interested in reading the
entire process, it's all contained in chronological order at:

and

[notification of "complaint dismissed" by the Washington board]
While
I am certainly disappointed in the Washington State Veterinarian Board, I
am not the least bit surprised at either their decision or their method of
handling the matter and I feel VERY GOOD about having pursued it so
relentlessly because HAD I had ANY doubts as to what's been happening and
continues to happen within the veterinarian community, I'm totally
satisfied that it's been fully exposed now. -- G.S.
