   VINELAND, N.J. (AP) -- Police say a New Jersey man posed as a female animal 
doctor, ran an illegal veterinary practice and set up a phony rescue agency 
that may have duped pet lovers out of thousands of dollars. 

   Vineland police arrested 26-year-old Daniel C. Tyce Friday and charged him 
with practicing medicine without a license. He's being held on $10,000 bail. 

   Police say he ran a business called South Jersey Small Animal Rescue, 
falsely identifying himself as Dr. Danielle Smith, a graduate of the University 
of Pennsylvania veterinary school. 

   Police say he inoculated pets and offered small animals for adoption for a 
fee. He also solicited donations, claiming the agency was a nonprofit. 
Authorities say it was not.
