Pit Sisters
Amputations / Broken Bones
We had 2 dogs that required amputation surgery and 1 dog had multiple broken bones.
Pit Sisters Veterinary Care
Pit Sisters has taken in over 100 pit bull type dogs from kill shelters since the opening of our rescue in November 2011. We tend to choose animals that have been severely neglected or abused as they have the least potential for care in our current shelter system.
Below are some of the procedures that have been completed within the last year to support the health, care, and well being of our dogs. Needless to say we have been a busy group.

We have treated 6 dogs for ring worm this year.
