Spay Neuter Kansas - Wichita

05/20/2024

UPDATE: Her owners were looking for her and thanks to Facebook they saw her posted and she is now back home.

Her name is Charlotte and she is 18 yrs old. I want to thank the person who found her and called us, and everyone who shared this post, as one of them reached her owners. It does take a village.

This dog was brought to our clinic Friday evening. She is a senior dog, very confused, hungry and dehydrated. She looks like a Pug mix with an extreme under bite. Has broken tail due to an old injury. She is basically blind, and mostly deaf.

She was found in the Neighborhood 3 blocks east of Maize south of Kellogg. We hope she just got lost from her home and her owners are looking for her, instead of being abandoned.

Call 990-3647 if this is your dog or you know her owner.

Just to let everyone know. The Wichita Animal Shelter is having issues with their communications. Their phone system is not always working and computer system is down. If you have lost your pet, please go in person to look for your pet. 24 Petconnect cannot be updated and they are unable to take credit card payments. Therefore, they are working on a cash only basis, so if you are to come and reclaim your lost pet you will need to bring cash.

Hopefully the city will get everything worked out soon and all will be as usual again. Until then, please share this as much as possible so people will understand why their phones are not ringing or no one is answering and why 24 petconnect has not been updated.

Many times we get dogs and cats coming for surgery that also need to be groomed. Many of our clients can not afford to have that done professionally. Tammie and Michi will do minor grooming while prepping for surgeries like clipping mats behind ears, legs, face, belly.

This dog, however, was in need of a full groom. The owner could not afford to get that done. We could not let this dog go home without helping him out.

The matting was so bad it turned into a shave down. It took Tammie and Michi some time, but was easier to do while the dog was still under anesthesia. They had some extra time to do that, but don't always have the time.

We could sure use a volunteer who has grooming knowledge to help the occasional dog or cat that comes to us in serious need of grooming.
Anyone interested, please call the clinic at 263-4200 and leave a message.

This dog left our clinic neutered, nails trimmed, and ready to start the spring free of a terribly matted coat. The owner was greatful that this was done also.

This week we were able to save two more lives. We don't just do spays and neuters. Sometimes those surgeries are needed to save lives. We did another spay for a dog with a pyometra. She was only 7 yrs old and the owners did not know that this is the possible outcome for not having her spayed. Spaying her was the only way to save her life, and they could not afford the cost to have it done anywhere else.

We also spayed a young cat who had been in the process of aborting her kittens for over a week. These kittens were not full term and for some reason her body was rejecting them. Without this surgery she would have been in a life or death situation as she was bleeding and trying to deliver them but could not.

This week we did a surgery that made everyone so happy. We got a frantic call late last week from a couple that had taken their 7yr old chihuahua to the vet because she stopped eating. She was diagnosed with a closed pyometra (the worse kind of uterine infection a dog can get). The only way to save the dog was to spay her, but they did not have the money to have the surgery done.

They found out about us and we scheduled her for this life saving surgery. They were unaware that this is many times the consequence of not spaying your dog, and felt so guilty about that. We asked if we could tell her story so others would understand this serious consequence of not getting your dog spayed and they said yes.

Dr Townsley has done many of these life saving surgeries at our clinic when owners could not afford to have it done otherwise. Their cost was our normal fee $70.

It was a bit more involved then a normal spay, but we were so happy to have been able to save her. Her owners were in tears over the thought of losing their dog. All went well with the surgery, because she came to us before it ruptured inside her.

With the removal of a huge swollen pus filled uterus, the toxins were removed and pressure on her abdominal organs was relieved. She is now eating and acting very normal.

We want to thank all who have donated to our clinic. These donations are how we are able to continue offering spay/neuter surgeries at such an affordable price to low income households who cannot afford regular prices.

We also hope that this will educate people that spaying your dogs and cats will prevent this and also greatly reduce the chance of mammary cancers.

We have had a very busy week so far. On Monday we spayed/neutered 26 cats. On Tuesday we spayed/neutered 13 dogs and 12 cats. Helping to stop pet over population one surgery at a time. Our staff rocks.

We had a great time today. We will be taking Photos with Santa Dan again this coming Saturday, the 17th, from 11 till 4pm.

To make it easier and safer for everyone you will come in, get a number and wait in your car till time to come in. We found this worked great, dogs were calmer and so were owners and volunteers.

For $15 you will get a photo in a card, and an electronic one sent to you by email. All proceeds go to help spay and neuter pets of low income households.
