Many states have mandatory spaying and neutering laws for certain animals. The admissions team at MU College of Veterinary Medicine wants to hear that while you may have your own opinion about these particular laws, you will be ethical and obey these laws when practicing veterinary care.
Discuss your viewpoint on mandatory spaying and neutering laws. Assure the admissions interviewers that your personal opinions on these laws will not cloud your professional judgment and that you will abide by the laws when you are a practicing veterinarian.

"I am a supporter of mandatory spaying and neutering laws for certain animals. The United States has a tremendous pet overpopulation. This overpopulation results in millions of healthy animals being euthanized yearly because there are not enough homes for them. Spaying and neutering animals like cats and dogs prevent more litters of homeless pets. I understand that Missouri state law requires that all dogs and cats adopted from an animal shelter be spayed or neutered. I understand and entirely agree with the logic behind this law. My passion is to care for and protect the animals we have now, and I will proudly continue supporting this mission when practicing veterinary care."
