SUCCESSFUL SURGERY FOR "LUCKY JACK"!
NEWS UPDATE: 5 May 2008
Jack is Back! "Lucky Jack" returned from Louisiana School of Veterinary Medicine in Baton Rouge , Louisiana on Friday, February 9th, from a successful surgery to extract the arrowhead lodged in his skull. The surgical site is visible on these updated pictures. Other than a brief nosebleed, Jack came through with flying colors. Dr. Giselle Hosgood, surgeon at LSU, performed the surgery. The surgery took about an hour. Jack will be convalescing the the All Pet Center for a couple of weeks. Dr. Bob Zepecki is initiating a nationwide search for a home for Jack. Just a few rules from Dr. Bob: Jack will be placed in a home with no current pet. Jack's new home must have a fenced yard. Lucky Jack walks well on a leash, and prefers rural or suburban areas. Kids in the house are fine if they are over 5 years old. If Jack develops future medical problems , new caregivers should be financially capable of caring for him. The ARF fund will sponsor Jacks first year of insurance, although the present conditions will be excluded. Potential caregivers should have a history of excellent care for their pets, or "Friends", better yet. Jack has had a "hard start" in life. We would like him to have a very pleasant life with many years of care and affection. ~ Dr. Bob

Click on the first "YOU TUBE" to see video of Lucky Jack's trip to Louisiana State University Veterinary Hospital where Jack had his successful surgery performed to remove the arrow from his head.
Click on the second "YOU TUBE" to see video of Jack's trip home after surgery!
Due to financial reasons, Jack’s owner has relinquished him and his further care to the Village Vet Services. Dr. Bob is in contact with veterinary surgeons concerning the chances for a successful surgery. Jack is off medication for now and doing well. He cannot open his mouth completely nor will he be able to do so until the arrowhead is removed. If you or someone you know if a hunter, since hunting season is approaching, please be responsible. What happened to Jack is NOT a sport - it is animal cruelty. If you witness any incidents of animal abuse, please report the matter to your local authorities.
CLICK HERE to view this touching story of "LUCKY JACK" and the efforts of Dr. Bob Zepecki of All Pet Center in Hot Springs, Arkansas to save this lucky dog's life after being cruelly injured by a bow & arrow.
Jack is currently being cared for by Dr. Bob and his staff at All Pet Center, where he is being socialized, taught how to walk on a lease, and prepared for his trip to LSU School of Veterinary Medicine for his delicate surgery to remove the steel arrow lodged in his head. The veterinarians plan to perform Jack's surgery sometime near Thanksgiving.

Home dental care is as important for your pet as it is for you. Periodontal disease affects 85% of adult dogs and cats and can lead to pain, bad breath and tooth loss. Even worse, chronic oral infection can spread harmful bacteria to other parts of the body, including the lungs, heart, liver and kidneys. Fortunately, most periodontal disease is preventable through a program of oral hygiene and regular professional care. Routine home dental care should be part of every pet's preventative medicine program.

About The LANCELOT FOUNDATION
The LANCELOT FOUNDATION is a partner of the National Veterinary Education Association and provides visits by Therapy Dogs to children's hospitals throughout the world. The Foundation is named "Lancelot", for a German Shepherd, who inspired its President, Professor Kendra Ryan, to establish a Foundation which gives hospitalized children the opportunity to interact with therapy dogs. Having suffered from Rheumatic Fever herself as a child, and being confined to bed for months at a time, Professor Ryan understands the need for children who are experiencing prolonged illness to have contact with these very special animals who provide an important bond between kids and pets.
The NATIONAL VETERINARY EDUCATION ASSOCIATION is chaired by Professor Kendra Ryan, noted author of "Pets Are People Too". Professor Ryan hails from County Kildare, Ireland and is currently serving as Chairman of the N.V.E.A. in Los Angeles for 2007 – 2008. Her tireless efforts to promote the use of therapy dogs in the treatment of pediatrics and long term illness have made Professor Ryan one of the foremost authorities on the psychological and emotional impact of these extraordinary animals. She is the Editor of the N.V.E.A.’s new online magazine for kids, “AnimalHouseMagazine.com” and is also a contributing journalist. She lives with her Service Dog, “Xena” and makes her home in Thousand Oaks, California and in Victoria, British Columbia. Prof. Kendra Ryan & Lancelot
