§ 183.356. Responsibility of a veterinarian.
No veterinarian shall permit a horse in his care to be started if he knows or if by the exercise of reasonable care he might have known or have cause to believe, that the horse has received a drug, stimulant, sedative, depressant, medicine or other substance that could result in a positive test.
Notes of Decisions Although Commission erroneously discussed Petitioner’s liability in terms of being a trainer rather than horse owner or veterinarian, Petitioner was still liable as the person having control of the horse, 58 Pa. Code § 183.352(b), and under the standards for a veterinarian, 58 Pa. Code § 183.356 or a licensed owner, 58 Pa. Code § 183.268. Reichard v. Harness Racing Commission, 499 A.2d 727 (Pa. Cmwlth. 1985).
