Success Story
After sneaking out to a neighbor’s property, Luna was taken by surprise when four other dogs broke through the fence and attacked her hindquarters. Bystanders were fortunately able to save Luna, but she would need immediate care if she were going to live.
An infection in her wound requiring ongoing care brought Luna and her owner, Amelia, to our Veterinary Hospital at CSU Spur for affordable veterinary care.
“During one of her last visits, the technician told me that Luna was very loved by everyone,” Amelia said. “I was amazed… I felt the support and knew she was in the right hands.”
As a teaching hospital, your pet will be cared for by an integrated team that includes staff veterinarians, veterinary interns, registered veterinary technicians, veterinary assistants, and supervised 4th-year veterinary students – all collaborating to provide thorough, attentive, and educationally enriched care.
