shared, so that working collaboratively is natural and comfortable. This makes sense in many areas and enhances the effectiveness of both entities. There are two recent examples illustrat-
ing the benefits of the collaborative rela- tionship between AAHA and the AVMA. First is the united opposition to the H.R. 1406 Fairness to Pet Owners Act (which would have, in effect, increased pet care cost as an unintended consequence of implementation). Second, on a positive note, is the joint participation of AAHA and the AVMA in the Partners for Healthy Pets initiative to promote preventive care. Both associations are voluntary and
have to demonstrate value to their vet- erinarian membership in order to main- tain support and involvement. Likewise, volunteer leadership roles within the two associations have many similarities.
Thus, it should be no surprise to see individuals, from either organization, par- ticipating in membership volunteer roles across associational lines, sometimes at a very prominent level. This is a natural and beneficial win-win situation. n
Clark K. Fobian, DVM, is president-elect of the AVMA. Currently, his time is devoted to practicing veterinary medicine at his practice in Sedalia, Mo., and fulfilling his role as a member of the AVMA Executive Board and the American Veterinary Medical Foundation Board.
