We're very excited to announce that we will be using an online pharmacy called Blue Rabbit starting October 15th! We'll be able to get your pet's meds delivered to you faster and more easily than other online services.

Why the change?

Although we know that many of our clients use Chewy.com (and others) for online prescription refills, it takes our doctors a lot of time to approve all of these requests; time that we would rather spend giving our patients quality care.

Using Blue Rabbit will save us valuable time and keep our costs down, at no additional cost to you. You'll have an easy-to-use client portal and be able to track your pets' medications, so you'll know exactly where they are and when to expect them.

Keep your eyes out for an email to set up your online account. And let us know if you have any questions. We hope this will make all our lives a whole lot easier!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Archi is here to say that he, along with many of our pets, would looove to sneak some turkey, ham, stuffing or whatever is left uncovered tomorrow… so please keep all those tasty dishes out of paw’s reach!

Foods like onions and garlic can be very toxic to our furry friends and rich foods like ham can cause gastrointestinal issues like pancreatitis.

Our office will be closed Thursday and open again at 8am on Friday. If you need help after hours, please call the rotating Durango emergency on-call line (this number can be found on our voicemail message at 970-247-4701). If you think your pet has ingested something they shouldn’t have, please call the Pet Poison Hotline at 888-426-4325.

It’s Vet Tech Appreciation Week! Jill Brazell CVT is our amazing Lead Tech and has been working with the Baker’s Bridge Team for THIRTY YEARS!

She’s usually leading a pack of border collies wherever she goes and does much-needed awesome work with Western Border Collie Rescue.

Max and Mando would like to make a quick PSA: with our recent warm temperatures, mosquitoes are still out and about, which means that heartworm is still a risk! Make sure to give your dogs a dose of heartworm preventative for October and early November. The monthly medication retroactively treats for heartworm infection, so it’s important to give the last dose one month post their last exposure for the year. If you have questions about this or need a refill, please give us a call!
