Epizootics overcame the territory of almost all Soviet Union, what made the government to organize the legislature of veterinary medicine – Central veterinary department of the People's Commissariat for Internal Affairs. In November 1917, the Central Council of Ukraine was created in Ukraine, which elected leader was M. Hrushevskyy. In this regard, the interim government of the Ministry of Internal Affairs was organized, at the disposal of which was also the veterinary administration.

With the proclamation of the Ukrainian People's Republic, the veterinary administration was an advisory department and was subordinated to the Ukrainian Veterinary Council, which included delegates from the provincial veterinary congresses and the veterinary department at the General Secretariat of Military Affairs.
