- blamarvt 4y agoYes, they do. I don't think it's the number of vet clinics that's the issue here though but rather the locations.
- Maximus9000 4y agoYes! Mars is buying medical practices in Canada too!
- legitster 4y agoNot many of their locations are speciality.
- zucked 4y agoLike... Mars candy? looks Yep, that Mars. What timeline am I stuck in?! I want off this train :(
- barbecue_sauce 4y agoI mean, they own Banfield and have been in the pet food business since the 30s, so...
- snapetom 4y agoMars was also forced to sell some emergency and speciality clinics about 3 years ago, too. Today's action isn't entirely unprecedented by the FTC.
