Ra (my one year old pitbull) was neutered Friday August 4, 2017 by Kody Kothmann at Caprock Vetrinary Clinic. He was sedated at 8:30am and was supposed to be done with surgery by noon that day. However, an "emergency" came in, so his surgery was put off.
He was picked up at 3:00pm the same day. (in a cage full of blood, urine and vomit.) Colton (my boyfriend) brought him home COVERED in blood and surgical spray. I knew something wasn't right immediately. His incision sight looked like something off a horror movie.
I went to work while Colton watched him. I came home around 10:30pm. He was still bleeding, so Colton and I decided we needed to take him somewhere. After talking to Kody, and him telling me everything was "normal" on the phone, but that he would meet me at the clinic if I "thought it was necessary", we decided to go to the emergency clinic instead.
The emergency vet clinic saw us around 12:00am, and said Ra had already developed an infection DUE TO HIS NEUTER earlier that day. The way she looked at the incision sight told us we had made the right decision coming in to the emergency clinic, rather than taking him back to the man who completely mutilated him. He got an antibiotic shot, steroid shot, and anti inflammatory shot, along with antibiotics and steroids to take at home.
Since this surgery we've been to the emergency vet twice, Key Vet Clinic, and Animal Medical Center. Ra's on multiple antibiotics, steroids and pain pills to get rid of the infection. He just had another surgery to hopefully fix Kody's mess today. We've spent $750 since his first surgery done by Kody, not including the initial neutering bill. A nurse said when he was in his second surgery the skin that was infected and had to be removed looked like "hamburger meat." This man completely butchered our dog.
If you care about your pet as another family member, and not just an animal (like this man does) DO NOT TAKE YOUR PET TO THIS MAN! He has zero compassion for animals. Ra is our baby, and we don't want anyone else to have to see their baby go through this. Read Less
