AABP Executive Director Dr. Fred Gingrich is joined by AVMA President Dr. Sandra Faeh Butler, AVMA Associate Executive Vice President and Chief Veterinary Officer Dr. Gail Golab, and AVMA Associate Executive Vice President and Chief Advocacy Officer Dr. Kent McClure.  Faeh updates us on the current AVMA membership, which includes over 108,000 veterinarians and represents at 2.9% increase in membership over the past year. One very important aspect of AVMA activities to bovine veterinarians is advocacy. We discuss how AVMA identifies advocacy priorities and uses AVMA entities and policy to develop this advocacy.  There are a number of issues that AVMA is currently providing advocacy for that are important to bovine veterinarians including access to critical drugs such as xylazine, access to antimicrobials for food animals, boosting the sustainability of rural veterinary practice, support of the Rural Veterinary Practice Enhancement Act, advocacy for the FARM bill, ensuring DEA regulations are compatible with ambulatory bovine practice, advocating against a mid-level practitioner position, and supporting the requirement for establishing a VCPR with an in-person visit and using telemedicine to support that existing VCPR.  Golab also provides information about the work of AVMA on the recent influenza outbreak in dairy cattle and poultry. AVMA plays a key role in collaboration with all stakeholders and convened a meeting last year with stakeholders across federal and state agencies as well as veterinary and producer groups representing bovine, swine and poultry groups. The result of this meeting was the development of the National Milk Testing Strategy to support nationwide surveillance of dairy farms.  AVMA guidelines are also important for veterinary medicine. Golab provides an update on the humane endings and depopulation guidelines, how they are developed and where we are in the new revisions for these guidelines. AVMA also recognizes that veterinary medicine, and food animal commodities, are globally influenced, and AVMA provides international advocacy to support not only bovine practice but also beef and dairy issues on the global market.  Our guests encourage bovine veterinarians to help AVMA in these advocacy efforts. This includes maintaining membership in AVMA, volunteering for committee and council membership, enrolling in the Congressional Advocacy Network, enrolling in the AVMA ambassador program, participating in the annual AVMA legislative fly-in, and donating to the AVMA Political Action Committee (AVMA PAC).  Links:Advocacy resourcesPolitical Action Committee (PAC)AVMA Congressional Advocacy NetworkVolunteer with the AVMA

Send us a textJoin us for a discussion about options for euthanasia techniques and aftercare in small ruminants and other livestock species with Dr. Warren Hess, the assistant director of the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA)'s Division of Animal and Public Health and AVMA's Disaster Coordinator. In this episode, Dr. Hess discusses the results of a survey investigating veterinary knowledge surrounding safe carcass disposal after pentobarbital euthanasia. Dr. Hess highlights the concerns regarding pentobarbital use in livestock as it severely limits the disposal options that clients have. Animals that are euthanized using this very commonly used substance may not be used for rendering and burial may result in contamination of groundwater with this toxic compound. The AVMA and AASRP are working to expand veterinarians' understanding of alternative humane euthanasia techniques including gunshot or captive bolt (followed by secondary method) or magnesium sulfate injection. While intrathecal lidocane injection is not currently an approved method of euthanasia by AVMA, it is becoming more widely practiced by equine and food animal practitioners. The publication describing the survey which is the focus of today's episode can be found here:https://avmajournals.avma.org/view/journals/javma/261/11/javma.23.03.0161.xml If your company or organization would like to sponsor an episode or if you have questions about today's show, please email Office@AASRP.org

There's no doubt that raw food for our cats and dogs has arguably been the number one choice, touted by veterinarians and pet experts alike. Closer to what cats and dogs would eat in nature, the benefits of feeding raw range from improved appetite, weight management, and healthier skin and coats. However, our love of the raw diet has now been tarnished. H5N1, aka Bird Flu, has been found in numerous raw meals, causing illness and even death in a few cases. The FDA is demanding better control over the manufacture of raw pet foods, while the AVMA says “Feline susceptibility to H5N1 is a cause for vigilance.” Steve Dale is here to help us understand what is happening in the pet food industry: is raw food still a good choice for our cats, or do we go back to traditional cooked meals for our cats? Let's find out… EPISODE NOTES: Feeding Fears: Bird Flu and the Raw Diet Debate

AABP Executive Director Dr. Fred Gingrich is joined by Dr. Matt Miesner, Clinical Professor in the Livestock Services Section at Kansas State University College of Veterinary Medicine. Safe restraint of cattle is important for human and animal safety but is also an important animal welfare consideration.  Restraint is not only about chemical immobilization and the veterinarian should also consider how to handle the patient in a low-stress manner utilizing available facilities, but also other methods of physical restraint. Miesner provides information about the importance of understanding what each drug provides in terms of sedation, analgesia and anesthesia and the differences in each term. In addition, individual patient circumstances should be considered by the veterinarian before administering drugs.  Miesner walks through the most common drugs used in bovine and mixed animal practice that the veterinarian can consider. This includes some common dosages and advantages and disadvantages of each drug, potential side effects and common uses. We also discuss an update on xylazine access and potential legislation. Gingrich suggests that veterinarians support the AVMA efforts in ensuring we can still use xylazine in bovine practice by donating to the AVMA PAC.  Veterinarians are advised to develop scientifically validated withdrawal intervals when using these drugs by contacting FARAD. Miesner also advises us on uses of epidurals and IV regional anesthesia as other practical methods of analgesia and immobilization. We close by discussing the importance of post-procedural pain control to ensure we are providing the best care to our patients and return them to health and productivity.  Links:Food Animal Residue Avoidance Databank - http://www.farad.org/ Bovine Field Restraint: Physical and Chemical Techniques for Balanced Restraint, Proceedings of the 2010 AABP Annual Conference, Matt Miesner, https://doi.org/10.21423/aabppro20104075 Injectable Anesthesia for Cattle Field Procedures, Proceedings of the 2023 AABP Recent Graduate Conference, Andrea Lear, https://doi.org/10.21423/aabppro20238737 Donate to the AVMA PAC to support our efforts in maintaining access to xylazine by visiting this link.  AABP Resource Approaching Pain in Cattle https://aabp.org/committees/view_pdf.asp?page=Pain_Brochure_8-15.pdf
