Please provide a story of one or more specific pets this grant helped.

One of our dogs, Holden Hughes, needed a cystotomy (and neuter). He had two huge bladder stones that prevented him from peeing except for dribbling. He had an enlarged prostate which was pushing his colon askew and interfering with his pooping. He also had a UTI, for which he’s on antibiotics. Removal of the stones and the neuter relieved many of the problems. Holden has not yet been adopted, but he’s learning how to be the best dog he can be while he waits for his future family looks to find him. Meet Holden.
