A homeless woman who lives on the streets of Stockton, CA called about her dog, Pepper, a 4 year old female Pit Bull Terrier Labrador mix who had been hit by a car. Pepper also has an abscess on her anal gland area. Pets of the Homeless provided assistance to have surgery to repair Pepper’s anal gland, as it had ruptured. This included anesthesia, anti-inflammatory and pain management injections, and surgical repair of the gland. We also assisted with an e-collar so that Pepper will stay away from the area while it heals.
