Faint praise: Sled dog veterinarians "may or may not be corrupt"

Dr. Paula Kislak: "The veterinarians who belong to the International Sled Dog Veterinary Medical Association are industry veterinarians, basically. They're a small group of veterinarians whose livelihood is supported by the industry of dog sled racing. So, they may or not be corrupt, but they're certainly very much invested in believing that what they're doing is OK, and invested literally, financially, as well as emotionally in promoting it. But they do constitute a small percentage of veterinarians that think this is OK."

- Dr. Paula Kislak, DVM, is president of the Association of Veterinarians for Animal Rights.
- Her remarks were made on the Animal Voices radio show, Toronto, Canada on February 28, 2006
