Actually, I think you may be right! Suspending his vet license would be a big punishment enough.

Actually, I'ld like to know the truth. In one of the previous articles he states the SPCA rep. wasn't even in the same room. Either way this is going to be interesting. However, if he didn't do what he is accused of then Lancaster Newspapers sure did a good job of ruining him.

Everyone pleads "not guilty". Charles Manson and Jeffrey Dalmer pleaded "not guilty".

As with most crimes, this is going to be he said/the witness said. Question: will the Vet take the stand in his own defense? That opens him up to questioning from the DA, not just his own lawyer. Because now, if he doesn't take the stand, the case will be judged on the testimony of that one witness. Which is good enough for me!

I would just like to say that Dr. Stevenson was referred to me for a ear cropping by a friend in the dog show world. I took my puppy up from Delaware for a ear cropping and after doing blood work on her he showed me the results and wouldn't even do the "elective surgery" on my pup. He explained to me that some of her numbers were to low and could possibly cause the death of my dog during surgery. He then prescribed me some vitamins (for only $16.00) that he thought would boost up where my pup fell short on the test. I was given another (non-charged, free) appointment for two weeks later and took her back. She was tested again and he showed me the results (again), and my pup had improved on her readings. Dr. Stevenson still had minimal concerns regarding the "elective procedure" because he said he liked to see the readings a tad bit higher. However, we discussed some pros and cons to the operation and he made me fully aware of what could happen if some of his "slight" concerns were present.

So, I explain this to "you" to say, does this sound like the "monster" the article paints??? Not to me.
I hope everything is how I assume them to be and Dr. Stevenson's name is cleared of any wrong doing.
