South OK vets should answer emergency calls

Having a veterinarian on call 365 days a year should be mandatory. Animals do not get hurt or sick on an 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. time frame.

The amount of money I have put in their pockets with my last two dogs probably put my vet’s children through school, along with a new motorhome.

So please, put out a little effort and rotate on weekends and holidays like a regular hospital does where the doctors take turns being on-call. Please offer after-hours emergency service. Most people would be thrilled.
