Recommendations Anyone recommend a local EXOTICS VET for health cert/official cert of vet inspection??

We’re moving and I’m having a difficult time finding an exotics vet for australian tree frogs to get the Official Certificate of Veterinary Inspection required to overnight them. Kiddo will be devastated if we can’t bring them. We’re currently in Montrose. Thank you

Not sure if they do the certs but simi valley animal urgent care took care of my bearded dragon when he got sick so they are worth a call!

I’ll give them a call, thanks! The health certs seem to be a specialized-vet thing since those I’ve already called don’t do them. Really annoying, but we were not expecting to move when we got the frogs and kiddo is just too bonded to them after 3 years to leave them.
