Complaint was initiated by Rod Connell, President of the Central FL Greyhound Association; he stated that there are a significant number of dogs being transferred from certain tracks (Flagler being one) to the Sanford-Orlando Kennel Club without up-to-date vaccinations - and in some cases, no vaccinations whatsoever. Investigators assured Connell that they would look into this issue, and as a result of their digging, they opened 9 cases involving such issue on 5/29/09

Investigation was opened because the Pensacola Track Vet (Hillman) died unexpectedly on 4/16/09. Therefore, there was a question as to whether or not Pensacola had a track vet on duty during the 4/17/09 program. During a routine facility visit, the investigator was unable to determine at that time whether or not a vet was present on the 17th, and the complaint was opened. After checking with the Presiding Judge, the investigator learned that retired track vet John Webb had been on duty on the 17th to replace Hillman. Investigator confirmed with Webb and track payroll office that Webb was rehired on the 17th and that he worked the performances on that date. Case closed without further action.
