B. The temporary permit issued under this section entitles the applicant to engage in the active practice of veterinary medicine in this state as an employee of a licensed veterinarian, the state or any county or municipality in this state. Such applicant shall be eligible for the next examination, if the applicant has not violated any provision of this chapter. Such applicant working under the direct and personal instruction, control or supervision of a licensed veterinarian and whose compensation is paid by such veterinarian may perform those acts of animal health care assigned by the veterinarian having responsibility for the care of the animal. No temporary permit shall be valid beyond the time for the next license examination for which the applicant is qualified. In the event any such applicant fails for good and sufficient reason to take the examination, the board, by majority consent, may extend the permit until the next succeeding examination.

No more than two temporary permits shall be issued to one individual. For the purposes of this subsection, "direct and personal instruction, control or supervision" means that a veterinarian licensed by the board is physically present and personally supervising a temporary permittee when the permittee is practicing acts of veterinary medicine except if the permittee is at a temporary site for the purpose of delivering services to large animals or if the permittee is administering emergency services not during regular office hours. In these cases, phone contact constitutes direct and personal instruction, control or supervision.

C. If an employer, for any reason, terminates the employment of the applicant, the employing veterinarian shall notify the board and the temporary permit is immediately void.
