I agree completely.Sorry - I tried to complete the questionaire but gave up. Apart from problems with the design of the survey which made it difficult to complete, I have issues with pushing preventative parasitic treatment for rabbits (eg routine monthly Rearguard for flystrike, when dietary management and general hygiene are more effective at prevention in most cases. Rabbits don't normally get fleas, so regular flea treatments are not required). A lot of rabbit parasites are better managed by good housekeeping and proper diet, etc, rather than by 'preventative' medication, so, in my opinion, the emphasis should be on better education on rabbit care rather than pushing medication, some of which can have adverse effects in this species.

Hi Emma,
I hope you're managing to get the responses you need on this & best of luck with your ongoing studies; it's a very rewarding profession.
Would it be more helpful if members gave details about particular issues with completing the questionnaire rather than just grumbling about it? I'm guessing it's too late to amend the survey itself, but it's perhaps something you can add in to your dissertation when you're discussing the results?
I'm also assuming that people answering to the best of their ability is going to help you, even if there is a question or 2 that can't be answere

It will also affect the validity of the actual results obtained from the survey.
Surely it's up to Emma to chase up anything she needs further details on, not for us to do it in public.
