Sassafras was hit by a car over a year ago.  The owners rushed her to the veterinarian and were told to watch the leg for infection and wait to see if the leg would ever regain any usefulness.  The owners were diligent in caring for her leg, but the wound remained open and would easily get infected. Unfortunately, the owner’s financial situation had changed and they did not have the estimated $1,000 to perform the amputation.  Janene came to us for help.  We arranged for Sass to be examined by a local veterinarian and perform the amputation.  Sassafras came home to a very grateful 6 year old girl. Her owners report that she is back to her normal self and that she gets around just fine on 3 legs.  Thanks to Dr Marley’s for performing the surgery and all the wonderful people who donate to the Oscar Fund so we can help people and their pets!!
