What Clients are Saying
Staff is so nice, caring and empathetic. Our emergency puppy situation ended up here for surgery 2 hours from home. They took great care of our girl, went above and beyond and communicated through whole process.
Dr. Pedigo and Jessica saved Fizzy’s life. And I can’t thank them enough for everything they did.
My dog, Jasper, had to have a dental cleaning and a fractured tooth removed. Everyone from the front desk staff to the techs and of course Dr. Pedigo were wonderful. They took great care of my boy. I am a vet tech myself and they took care of my boy just as thoroughly as I would myself ❤️.

Anal sacculectomy surgery is a surgical procedure to remove one or both anal glands on a dog. Glands are typically removed due to inflammation or chronic infections.
To learn more about, check out our resource “Anal gland removal surgery“.
Anal sacculectomy surgery is a very effective procedure and will remove the glands that have chronic inflammation and infections. If inflammation from tumors is the cause then additional treatments might be needed. Due to the high amount of nerves around the rectum, never damage could be a risk. Some patients may have abnormal bowel movements immediately after surgery.
