Veterinarian Dr. Kwane Stewart also known as the “The Street Vet” has taken the lead in helping a homeless veteran. The first time Dr. Stewart met “Richard” was back in August. Richard is a veteran living in Ocean Beach, with his dogs. According to Dr. Stewart, Richard has been working with the Department of Veterans Affairs to find housing while living in a barely functioning car. His dog is his constant companion, and she has been receiving free care from Dr. Stewart through his nonprofit “Project Street Vet. Dr. Stewart said Richard demonstrated what it meant to be a loving pet parent. On Monday morning, Dr. Stewart and Dareh Zadoorian, CEO of Los Angeles-based company HolistaPet, gave Richard the keys to a 2016 pre-owned Toyota Sienna where he and his dog, “Princess Leia,” can temporarily live and stay warm at night. Thank you Dr. Stewart for helping and THANK YOU Richard for your service.
