Gunbarrel Veterinary Hospital has been dedicated to providing the highest quality veterinary care in the Boulder, Longmont and Gunbarrel area since 1969. We provide complete health care for a wide variety of animals including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs and hamsters. Gunbarrel Veterinary Hospital was originally started in a remodeled old farmhouse in 1969. As the years passed, the practice ou

tgrew the farmhouse and in 2004 the new hospital and boarding kennel were completed. Our award winning facility is a 10,000 square foot modern, efficient building designed for the maximum comfort of our patients, their caretakers and our staff. The boarding kennel has 50 runs for dogs as well as a separate kitty condo for our feline boarders. We also have a very large covered outdoor Doggie Day Care.

MEET FRITO AND CHEETO!! They were found in a hay stack in a farm sanctuary. Mom never came back, so they had to be bottle fed. They are about as adorable as you can imagine. The owner of the sanctuary and I put in so much love and effort to training these kittens. They get along with other cats and dogs. They are litter trained, microchipped, neutered and UTD on vaccines for their age. The rehoming fee is basically what we put into them. $200. You can call Nicole at 303 261-2726. We will do home check and ask that they be indoor only.

This Cedar Waxwing was admitted to our hospital after it sustained a soft tissue injury to it's left wing and was unable to keep up with it's flock. The bird has now healed and is ready for release, but we need your help!

Cedar Waxwings are migratory so we are hoping our community can help us find a flock to give this little one the best chance of survival. If you know of a flock of Cedar Waxwings in the Denver Metro area, please PM us asap!

Thanks for helping this little cutie get a second chance!

💔URGENT💔: We helped rescue 50+ terrified dogs during a raid of an illegal slaughterhouse in Indonesia, moments before being brutally killed for their meat. After a long and horrific journey crammed in a transport truck with their mouths tightly bound shut, these dogs are in desperate need of medical care to survive.

Please rush a donation to help these dogs and fund our lifesaving work for all animals in need of rescue and protection: hsi.org/fb112621

We know that there are many factors to consider when purchasing products. Because it’s a lesser-known issue, we have chosen to focus on raising awareness of the issues surrounding the use of palm oil, and its harmful effects on wildlife when it’s produced unsustainably. By adding this knowledge to the conversation, we hope consumers can take all of their passions into account when making buying choices.

Wildfires are raging across the western United States, and hurricanes continue to threaten the Gulf Coast and southern states. The AVMF is responding with financial aid to the affected areas.

Good Morning, Friends,

This coming Tuesday, September 1st, Boulder City Council will be voting on a proposed plan for managing Prairie Dogs on City of Boulder Open Space.

As written, the plan grants authority to kill nearly 30,000 prairie dogs.

As a city known for innovative problem-solving and an appreciation for outdoor living, Boulder is uniquely-positioned to lead our State in establishing non-lethal, conservation-minded policies toward native wildlife.

We can and should do better.

I invite you to read my Op-Ed in today’s Daily Camera (link below), and I encourage Boulder County residents to contact the Boulder City Council and request five commonsense amendments be included in the plan. If you live outside of Boulder County, your letter will likely be added to the total number in support of Prairie Dogs, but it may hold less sway with City Council.

Op-Ed:

Register to Speak Virtually to Boulder City Council on Tuesday, September 1st:

https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__bouldercolorado.gov_city-2Dcouncil_participate-2Din-2Dcity-2Dcouncil-2Dmeetings&d=DwMFaQ&c=sdnEM9SRGFuMt5z5w3AhsPNahmNicq64TgF1JwNR0cs&r=lraR9qjo75wuK_SbZgIXhE1NfOXU68I9e8Di1phoo9s&m=tPg6lNkNAPevONdEa0N1BjU7UvEw7Lj9ESWc00OKiOE&s=IOPlBXCwEfl6JUwGuuaU9KF7VqP8FNHO423pQ5kdCtU&e=

Request Boulder City Council include the following Commonsense Amendments to OSMP’s Expedited Plan for Prairie Dogs on Irrigated Agricultural Lands (NOTE: feel free to copy and paste these into your e-mail to Boulder City Council):

1. Reduce the 967-acre Project Area to 406 acres by removing (a) properties where agricultural uses can co-exist with prairie dogs; (b) OSMP-designated Prairie Dog Conservation Areas; and, (c) OSMP-designated Grassland Preserves.

2. Prior to implementation of any lethal control on properties within the Reduced Project Area, perform an analysis on each property, with knowledgeable stakeholders to collect baseline data on each parcel for research on soil health, co-existence strategies, and carbon sequestration.

3. Ask the City Manager to authorize a Special Use Permit for use only on the properties within the 2021 and 2022 prioritized removal and transition areas that have been identified for lethal control through a parcel-by-parcel analysis with staff and stakeholders. Apply for a second permit in early 2023, only if it has been determined necessary after the Plan is reviewed by staff and stakeholders.

4. Work with other entities including the state office to consider outside funding and resources to increase annual relocations and coexistence techniques if they become available.

5. Release relocated prairie dogs to the city’s Southern Grasslands where there is historic unoccupied habitat, a larger landscape, and only 3% occupancy to create sustainable prairie dog populations alongside our Boulder County & USFWS neighbors.

Gunbarrel Veterinary Hospital’s own Michelle Pendergrass has written a beautiful story! Check out Some Dogs Are Different! It makes a great gift too!

We also have this book for sale in our lobby, stop by and pick up a copy!

https://www.somedogsaredifferent.com/

The book Some Dogs are Different tells the story of four amazing dogs; a blind dog, a deaf dog, a dog that uses wheels to get around a three legged dog. It’s a great conversation starter for parents and kids about accepting things that are different and learning that we all belong.
