At West Ridge Animal Hospital, we prioritize the comfort and well-being of all our furry patients. That's why Dr. Tanguay recently led a session on pain assessment in dogs and cats.
As you know, our pets can't tell us exactly where or how much pain they're experiencing. Dr. Tanguay shed light on the challenges of pain assessment and the various tools veterinarians use to understand our animal companions.
This session covered:
The importance of pain assessment in accurate diagnosis and treatment.
Non-verbal cues that may indicate pain in dogs and cats.
Valuable resources like the Feline Grimace Scale to aid in pain evaluation.
We're committed to providing the best possible care for your pets, and that includes understanding their pain signals.

๐ฟ๏ธ Happy Squirrel Appreciation Day! ๐ฟ๏ธ
Let's celebrate these playful and entertaining creatures that bring joy to our neighborhoods and play a vital role in our ecosystems.
Did you know that squirrels are excellent seed dispersers, helping to plant trees and regenerate forests? They also aerate the soil and control insect populations.
We can all do our part to protect squirrels and their habitats by providing safe spaces for them to live and forage. Avoid using harmful pesticides and poisons, and consider installing squirrel-proof bird feeders to minimize conflict.
Let's appreciate these amazing animals and work together to protect them for generations to come. Share your favorite squirrel sighting or a funny squirrel story in the comments below!

West Ridge Animal Hospital has been serving the animals of Northern Colorado since 1968. In 1978, West Ridge became the first American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA) accredited hospital in the area. Accreditation requires advanced medical facilities and practices, and voluntary inspection of our medical records and standards of patient care. West Ridge Animal Hospital remains the only full service American Animal Hospital Association-accredited hospital in Greeley and has recently achieved the highest level of accreditation available.
As a team, we come together to provide the most comprehensive, compassionate care available. We continue to grow to serve you and your petโs every need.
We offer a wide variety of surgical and professional services for the well being of your pet. We strongly believe in preventative health care including routine health checks, diagnostic blood panels and vaccinations, to name a few. Consult your veterinarian about arthritic pain management, geriatric care, and behavioral problems. We encourage you to approach any of our professional staff with questions you may have regarding your animal companion.
We are proud to offer a number of digital radiographic services to complement standard diagnostic procedures. If your pet undergoes radiographic procedures, your veterinarian evaluates the x-rays. In addition, a board-certified veterinary radiologist reviews all digital radiographs taken at West Ridge Animal Hospital. Bring a CD-R along with you on your visit and we will gladly burn a disk of your companions x-rays.
Along with routine surgical care, we provide advanced orthopedic surgery as well as cutting edge veterinary dental services. We are capable of handling virtually every emergency and customary surgical procedure as well.
West Ridge Animal Hospital is pleased to provide alternative or complementary treatment options. These services encompass dietary supplements, acupuncture, animal chiropractic, physical therapy, underwater treadmill and massage therapy.
We offer both traditional boarding as well as our special medical boarding which includes a full doctorโs examination daily, all medications and many extras. For our traditional boarding, you may choose from a list of fun and convenient options to spoil your pet.
