State veterinarian retiresColorado Colorado State Veterinarian John Maulsby has announced his retirement effective July 31. Maulsby was appointed to the state's chief veterinary position in August 2006. "John has been a dedicated veterinarian for over 30 years, 20 of which were in service to the Colorado Department of Agriculture," said Agriculture Commissioner John R. Stulp. "John has been a tireless advocate for the compassionate treatment of animals and a dedicated regulatory veterinarian." Maulsby is a Colorado native and received his Doctor of Veterinary Medicine from Colorado State University in 1975. He worked in private practice for 13 years prior to joining CDA. In 2005 Maulsby was nominated for the Governor's "State Top Achievement Recognition" award for his efforts on behalf of the department to manage an outbreak of vesticular stomatitis, an insect-borne disease that threatened the state's dairy, beef and horse herds. "I have enjoyed working for the Colorado Department of Agriculture for the last two decades; I truly believe that agriculture is our most important industry," said Dr. Maulsby. "I wish the best to Colorado's ag producers and thank them for being such an important part of all of our lives." "Doctor Maulsby has been a valuable member of my staff and I have the utmost respect for his integrity, professionalism and veterinary skills. He will be missed," Stulp said. According to Stulp, a search for his replacement will begin this spring. 4/14/08 Date: 4/9/08 Advertisement
