(2) It should have been done five years ago. Hopefully, when they impose similar regulations for KHV, they will do a better job. -stevehopkins

Good Post!!! No sense in getting everyone excited about something until more is known as to the cause and effect it will have.

You're right. If you know what you're doing going in, it shouldn't be a problem. Most of the breeders are responsible people and have known about this for some time. Those who have not bothered to follow through on the information a couple of years ago, will be effected. I'm sure they'll be jumping on board very soon!
