TIGER DENTISTS PAWS ARK 2000 SANCTUARY

At 8 a.m. on Saturday, August 28, 2010, dental specialists from the Peter Emily International Veterinary Dental Foundation (PEIVDF) arrived at ARK 2000 in San Andreas, CA, for what would become a marathon dental weekend involving many of the Colton tigers now residing at the Performing Animal Welfare Society sanctuary. By Sunday afternoon, 19 root canals and one oral surgery had been performed by this generous group of doctors from California, Colorado, Washington, Nevada and Louisiana, who donated their time, considerable talents and equipment to make this weekend possible.

For more information about PAWS, go to our website at pawsweb.org.

Information about PEIVDF can be found on the foundation's website, peteremilyfoundation.org.

A special thank you to the VCA Animal Care Center in Rohnert Park, CA, for supplying the technician staff and anesthesia monitoring equipment for the PAWS ARK 2000 tiger dental weekend. www.accsonoma.com

Our sincere thanks to everyone involved, for your kindness, compassion and generosity.

TIGER DENTIST!

SO glad you are there to help the elephants and the tigers. Who do you know that can help release Tony the Tiger to Big Cat Sanctuary? He probably needs a root canal and many other types of care since Michael Sandilin has him rotting in a cement cage in Gross Tete, LA for 10 years. Wish you could get Bob Barker to help. Thanks Pat and Ed for ALL you do!!
