Pet Hospital Extras

Dr. Boyer on the set of KUSI Local News

It started last July when Fields, who works in ocean research at the University of California Santa Barbara, was concerned about his gecko of more than 13 years, a female named GirlieGrrrl. She began to lose weight, was shedding frequently and had diarrhea. He tried to feed her with a tube, but that did not help. Last fall, Fields' veterinarian was at a loss, and he referred the gecko to San Diego veterinarian Dr. Thomas Boyer of Pet Hospital of Peñasquitos, who has a special interest in reptiles.

Just as Sunny was getting center stage for adoption, Cher arrived on the scene.

Now the county Department of Animal Services will be finding homes for both of the Labrador retriever-mix puppies. They are about 2 months old and believed to be from the same litter. Both were found abandoned with their ears cut off.
