I think they don't like that.

And I've done it before.

So I think that kind of gives me more confidence that I can do it again.

And I don't think that's, because before this, so before Dutch came on the scene, what the shelter groups, for example, that wanted telemedicine, what they were doing is talking to the state veterinary boards.

Because that's a simpler way that this could all change.

If the veterinary board at the state, they could just say, if you want to do telemedicine, do telemedicine, if it's medically appropriate.

It could be as simple as that.

And so for over 10 years, they were having these conversations.

And so that's when I got here and I'm like, this is doing nothing.

So we got to go the legislative route.

But it doesn't seem like they're thinking that way.

Well, again, what they'll say is, we are thinking of the pets.

We think millions of dogs will die with telemedicine.

How will that happen?

Well, let me tell you.

Some of these examples I've seen, they'll say... Like, I'll say... The example I used, anxiety.

Like, I'll say, isn't that great for telemedicine?

The dog is in the comfort of their home, and you can shoot... They'll say...

Well, what if the dog ate a nail?

You know, if the dog ate a nail, I've been in hearings where this example has happened.
