Discussion

The Animal Control Department is requesting that the purchase order for the its
primary veterinary service provider, Dr. Bishay/Advanced Pet Care, be increased by
$30,000 to a total of $73,000 for FY 2016/17" to allow lir. Bishay/Advanced Pet Care to N
provide for the proper health care of the animals housed at the City Shelter. Dr. Bishay 0
of Advanced Pet Care was selected for FY 2016/2017 to provide our primary veterinary
services for the shelter. lir. Bishay has obtained an cuff-site Drug Enforcement Agency E
(DEA) license which enables him to purchase and monitor the use of specified a
medicinal controlled substances at the shelter. The City is required to have a licensed
veterinarian doctor or technician for this purpose. The maintenance cost for the E
monitoring and tracking of the Animal Control controlled substances i 00 per month.
w
Dr. Bishay and Advanced Pet Care also provide on-site and off-site veterinarian care for
animal shelter dogs and cats. A licensed veterinarian visits the animal shelter one day
per week for 2 hours, at a cast of $150 per hour. The visiting veterinarian helps mitigate
illnesses that could spread throughout the shelter as well as re-examining animals that
have had previous treatment reducing the need for animals to be transported to the
veterinarian hospital. Staff recommends increasing the visits made by Dr.. Bishay to two
tunes a week since the City currently does not have a Registered Veterinary Technician

times a week since the City currently does not have a Registered Veterinary Technician

animals at the shelter.

veterinary service for the City of San Bernardino Animal Shelter and that the current
purchase order for Advanced Pet Care be increased to a total of $78,000 utilizing
existing funds within the Animal Control budget.

Hello, my name is Andrea Neyses.
I am a regular visitor to both local shelters and have been a witness to Dr. Bishay's visits.
I can confirm that he is only at the shelter 15-20 minutes at the most for each shelter visit.
I would like to share a few dogs that I feel he should have noticed were sick and helped.
1.) Bobby ID number A499382 arrived to the shelter on 11/6/16. He was healthy, but fearful.

On the morning of 11/29/16, 1 arrived at the shelter, I immediately noticed Bobby ID number
A499382 was extremely sick. I flagged Dr. Bishay down and asked him if he saw the sick dog in
this kennel. He shook his head no and said he would look at him, but he proceeded to walk away. I
waited at his kennel comforting him, but the doctor never returned. When I went into office to ask
if the staff had seen the vet, they told me he had left 20 minutes before.
On the morning of 6/21/16, Larry was the first dog I noticed. I took this photo and a video of him. I
sent the video to the Advanced Pet Care office manager Kimberly Reeves. Kimberly's response was
"he's on meds, what do you want me to do" and then she blocked me. She asked me to text her
videos when I saw sick dogs at the shelter. I was only doing as she asked of me. How could she see
a video of an animal in this condition and not want to do everything to help? Staff ended up having
to humanely euthanize Larry at the end of the day.

3.) Jack ID number A495255 was a 13 weeks old puppy. He was sent to Advanced Pet Care on
6/27/16. He stayed at Dr. Bishay's office for 5 days until he was sent back to the shelter on 7/2/16.
His only discharge instructions were to give BNP eye ointment twice a day and Clavamox twice a
day. Jack was rescued on 7/7/16. He was extremely sick and was fighting for his life.
w
Here is Jack just after he was rescued, he was diagnosed with distemper and had huge wounds
that were infected that had to be shaved and cleaned. Why weren't the wounds noticed and
cleaned during the 5 day stay at Advanced Pet Care?
