Puget Sound Veterinary Specialists was founded to offer a beacon of hope to all who need to seek the help of a veterinary specialty center. We believe in caring for animals and their caregivers. We care about our community. That’s why we support local charities, local businesses and invest in pet related education programs. We strive to provide the highest quality medical care to our patients and emotional support to their family.
How can we ever thank Dr. Vanessa Rizzo and her team for saving Gus' life? In May of 2017, our 10 year old, happy-go-lucky German Wirehaired Pointer named Gus was diagnosed with Osteosarcoma, a primary bone tumor that is a common bone cancer diagnosed in dogs. Without treatment, he was expected to live only 3-6 months. With this devasting news, we opted for surgery to amputate his front leg and remove the tumor in hopes of extending his life. After surgery, Dr. Rizzo used chemotherapy and lots of love to care for Gus in hopes of completely removing the cancer from his body. Dr. Rizzo was so kind and patient during such a difficult time and our family will always share a special bond with her. We are happy to report that 2.5 years later, Gus still has his same zest for life and can be found running around our farm with the other dogs!
