    maby if its LOcaL , you could contact them and let them know how they are hurting the animal comunity by posting this type of stuff.. they seem to be in the animal field, and they probabaly just wanted to be cute, but theres a time and place for everything,,,, and they just missed the time and the place...:banned1:.

    I'm pretty sure it's a joke. I'm just not really sure what their point is. There was a phone number that I removed and I'm thinking of asking what exactly are they advertising? lol

    Joke or not, it's absolutely more damaging to us than they obviously understand. I'd actually like to contact them myself but there's no number or email added to the "ad" :rage:

    As a general rule, most people are idiots...these people just reinforce that point.

    I have seen that pic before. I believe it was for a reptile vet that someone on here recommend. I saw it without all the writing. If I remembered who and where it was I would call that vets office and ask them if they knew their pic was being used in such a way.

    It's a pic of the okeechobee vet hospital staff in Tampa Bay. What paper was this in and if I can find their number I will contact them to make them aware of that pic and comments in the photo.

    The vet office just replied to my email and said they contacted the paper to have it removed and they asked if I had the number in the add. If you have the number from it can you please post it or pm me with it so I can give it to the vet office so they can contact the person who put the add up. Thanks. I will post the email that I received later.
