For the record, Bahamian vets have always done cost price spays and large amounts of pro bono work for clients unable to pay normal fees. They also participate in many spay and neuter projects in New Providence and the Family Islands. Proud Paws in the past 10 years has spayed/neutered more than 7,000 dogs and cats in New Providence and has contributed to spay and neuter projects in several Family Islands. All of this good work was performed by Bahamian vets and their staff with funds raised from Bahamian residents. No outside assistance was requested nor needed for what is the most successful spay/neuter project ever in The Bahamas.
The Tribune Survey re Operation Potcake is a "trick question"!!!
The question more accurately should have been framed;
Do you prefer dogs to be be spayed/neutered by volunteer foreign vets using funds raised from animal lovers at a cost of approx $50.00 each OR
Would you prefer dogs to be spayed/neutered by Bahamian vets using their anesthetics ,antibiotics,needles,suture materials, pain meds, which cost them approx $50.00, for they would be re-imbursed by the organizers. Oh by the way, the Bahamian vets bring their Bahamian trained surgical assistants and pay them their usual day's pay!
