While Ky was flaming in heat her owner had the brilliant idea to “take her out for breeding”.  (Sadly, we have been hearing this phrase quite a bit lately.) Ky was already swollen enough, but this is what happened afterwards, a prolapse uterus. Ky was swelling more each day and it was not looking good.

Thankfully from some great communication and education from our volunteer Sue and immediate response from our friends at All About Animals, Ky was spayed, vaccinated and kept overnight for recovery.

The Animal Care Network provided financial assistance to get this done and Ky is now doing really great!!  She could have died had this gone untreated.

All in all a job well done, good education, owner’s that were willing to listen, great care from All About Animals and one less litter of pit bull puppies in our target area.
