Well, that's interesting. Dr. Droke donates out of date drugs to SAGA and then complains to the Vet Board that out of date drugs are being used?

No, and you well understand what I said. Out of date drugs can be used if they are still good, but if they have obviously deteriorated they can't.

Yes, I understood that. I also understood that this sad story has been growing and becoming more fleshed out as these threads have gone on. But wasn't Dr. Droke complaining about the out of date drugs in general, and perhaps even before the latest incident that resulted in a beloved pet's passing, knowing all along that she was providing SAGA with out of date drugs? And further in that particular regard, how can anyone including Dr. Droke even be sure that she could have saved the dog had it been brought to her sooner? That is a strawman argument.

Dr. Droke is of the opinion that the dog might have died anyway, but of course she isn't sure as two days had passed.

No, I don't believe Dr. Droke is particularly complaining about use of out-of-date drugs, used sensibly. Her principal complaint in that regard (there are other more important issues) is that it is inappropriate and unfair for a humane society to use donated drugs for commercial activities, whilst an independent vet has to pay the going rate. It is also possibly a breach of trust to the benefactor, when the drugs were donated for the treatment of animals which otherwise could not have been treated. She also believes it is wrong for out-of-date drugs to be used for commercial work when it is illegal for a private vet to do the same. She is after a level playing field.

Since when is it a "level playing field" for a johnny-come-lately private practice to be dictating how a humane society conducts itself?

How could that be reaper? It is the timely demise of the poor dead dog that has been used to help inflame matters at hand.

39 pages of four different posts regarding this issue. It seems to me SAGA has a board of directors to conduct and oversee their business. Dr. Droke now conducts her business.
The "Trial" of "who is guilty of what" is being held here on AC.com. I wish we had a "Hot Topic" forum that only the "regulars" could participate in, like the "Business Forum".
If I was a new visitor to this website I would be afraid to donate any money to SAGA and think Dr. Droke is an evil moneygrubber. That's just the way these all read out.

Or maybe two sub-categories - Friends of Pedro vs non-friends of Pedro.
