it was someone who does not know homeopathy but is vegan and heard that it was made with pigs bladder originally and didn't want to take it as it would comprimise her morals..she did mention her friend was a homeopathic doctor..so speaking about vegans anyone ever had a problem giving animal remedies to vegans??

I explain that remedies are electromagnetic energy of given frequencies--not material matter.
Also, that animals are not killed just to make a remedy.
And then there is the option of not telling them what the rx is.

Do you know who told her that? I wonder whether the person was being deliberately deceitfrul (or thought she'd know better) or where they got it from--any idea?

Re giving animal remedies to vegans, that depends entirely on the vegan. Some people and religious make exception if needed for medicinal purposes; others do not.

That's not exactly true...the insects and spiders and some fish do not fair so well !

However for the remedies that did need to sacrifice an animal,
the use of one individual animal or insect as a homeopathic remedy
is enough to supply that remedy to millions of people.
Examples from Clarke:
Apis – Honey Bee venum
tincture of whole bee

Spiders
putting the spider, while alive, into strong alcohol to make tincture

Blatta Cockoaches (both)

Trituration of live insect

Doryphora decemlineata – Potato Bug
Tincture, by covering crushed live beetle with alcohol

Pulex irritans - Flea

I am sorry, you are correct. I was thinking in a limited way of the larger animals
like lion or dog's milk, etc

wow thnks Lynn for all that info and for the others as well as I like to know how to address various issues that come up. I do not know where she heard that information from but it is frustrating that someone told her that. I also like that even if an animal was harmed it was only one and that one will give us remedies for a lifetime..thanks for all your thoughts!!
