Born in 2004, Billy has always had a jovial spirit, and is a favorite patient at Gallatin Veterinary Hospital.

Billy first came to GVH in December of 2010 for a consult for a left rear leg injury. His owners were planning to schedule a cruciate stabilization surgery after returning from a trip over the holidays, but those plans were quickly changed. The day after his consult, Billy came back acutely limping on his right front leg, and the owner had noticed a swelling on the area. Radiographs were taken to be sent to a specialist for interpretation.

GVH News

Recently, a dog named Buddy came to us by way of the Butte Animal Shelter. During a trip back to Arizona, Buddy became separated from his owner. To make matters worse, the owner totaled his truck after looking for Buddy for a day and a half around Dillon. A month after his owner had returned to Arizona, Buddy was found by Butte Animal Shelter, he had survived in the wild with a severe foot injury and was facing amputation. The staff at Butte Animal Shelter contacted Dr. Mark Albrecht here at Gallatin Vet and Dr. Albrecht was able to provide remarkable care that saved Buddy's foot. You can see how GVH saved his Buddy's foot and helped reunite this remarkable pet with his owner--Watch the story about Buddy at the KTVM website.

Please note that we are currently seeking donations from the public for Buddy's care which came to many thousands of dollars and involved many caring people throughout southwest Montana. We hope you will take a moment to consider this request. Call (406) 587-4458 if you can help.
