Veterinarian Overview
Hi, I am Pamela Sanders, D.V.M. I have been the owner of Princeton Veterinary Clinic since 1987. I grew up in a suburb of Philadelphia, PA, and then moved west to go to college in Colorado. I graduated from Colorado State University School of Veterinary Medicine in January 1980. I moved to the South Bay after graduation and worked in practices in Los Gatos and San Jose. In 1985, I was President of the Santa Clara County Veterinary Medical Association. I bought Princeton Veterinary Clinic in July 1987. After over 30 years, I still love being a veterinarian. I enjoy sharing my love and respect of animals with their owners. I am especially interested in internal medicine, soft tissue surgery, and trying to solve behavioral problems. I also like working with service dogs (Canine Companions for Independence, Guide Dogs, Police Dogs) to try to enhance the special bond these dogs have with their owners. Currently, I have a hospital cat, Dini, and my at-home dogs Pippi, Maxi, and cats, Dexter and Eli. Sadly, on December 31, 2014, I had to put my beloved German Shepherd, Maxi, to sleep. It was a very painful decision but he had several neurological problems and it had gotten to the point where he could not out walk and he was having seizures that could not be controlled with medication. I will always love and miss him. I decided to get to get another German Shepherd thru German Shepherd Rescue. I was looking for a young adult male
but ended up with a female puppy, who I named Cully. She is very sweet & cute good thing, since she is a very active puppy & has done her share of destruction. Her speciality is chewing on things like rugs, dog beds, door frames, & stucco. We have been thru 2 training classes already & will probably have to continue for a long time. My cats, Eli & Dexter, are not amused, but my other dog Pippi loves to play with her, but even she has to climb on the sofa or bed to escape her sometimes. My house feels like a puppy playpen!
