Meet Redd!
Redd is a five month old mix puppy that was brought to our veterinary hospital on March 21st 2012 by his owners because of extensive damage to his penis. The owners told us that they had noticed the problem about three days prior and just left him in the backyard because they were not sure what to do with him. When Redd was finally brought to us, the tissue of his penis was mostly necrotic. It was covered in dirt and insect bites and swollen to nearly three times its size.
When the owners were told about the extensive medical treatment the pet would need they promptly left the hospital and abandoned the puppy with us. At that point, M.A.I.N. stepped in and helped this poor kid! Warning, the picture of Redd’s injury below is very graphic…
Redd’s Updates: Redd made a full recovery after surgery and has been adopted to a wonderful couple! Congrats Redd and your fur-ever family!
