A Note to Our Clients 🐾

We wanted to let our valued clients know that Dr. Hageman has to undergo last-minute back surgery tomorrow. Because of this, he will be out of the office for the next 2+ weeks to rest and recover.

We truly appreciate your patience and understanding during this unexpected break. In the meantime, please note that all appointments can be made directly through our website at https://kiosk.rhapsody.vet/?businessId=2y1p041J&embed=true&language=en-US.

We look forward to having him back to helping your pets very soon. Thank you for your support! ❤️

🌎💚 World Mental Health Day 💚🌎

Today, we pause to recognize the importance of mental health — for our clients, our team, and everyone who dedicates their hearts to caring for animals.

Veterinary medicine is one of the most rewarding careers, but it can also be emotionally demanding. To all pet parents, fellow veterinary professionals, and friends in our community: please remember that your mental well-being matters just as much as the health of the pets we care for.

Take a moment today to breathe, connect, and reach out if you need support — it’s okay to ask for help. 💬🐾

Let’s continue creating a community where kindness, understanding, and compassion extend to both animals and people.

Welcome to Monticello Animal Hospital! We are dedicated to providing the best care for your pet.

Happy National Dog Day! 🐶
Today we celebrate the dogs that make our Monticello community so special.

Nationally, Labrador Retrievers remain America’s favorite, with dachshunds making the top 10 for the first time in decades.

But here in Monticello, we know every pup, purebred or mixed, big or small, has a place in the family.

🐾 To celebrate today, we’re inviting you to share your dog’s photo in the comments! Let’s fill this page with the happy faces of Monticello’s best dogs.

Is “Ozempic for Dogs” Coming Soon?
Pet obesity is one of the fastest-growing health challenges in veterinary medicine, with nearly 60% of U.S. pets now overweight or obese.

Researchers are working on an innovative implant (called OKV-119) that delivers a steady dose of medication to help regulate appetite. After early success in cats, clinical trials in dogs are underway and it could reach the market in just a few years.

⚠️ But here’s the important part: your pet doesn’t have to wait for new technology to stay healthy.
✔️ Regular weight checks
✔️ Tailored nutrition plans
✔️ Safe exercise routines

👉 If you’re worried about your pet’s weight, schedule a wellness visit with us. Together we can create a plan that keeps your furry friend fit, active, and happy. No implant required 😉

It’s one of the most unique looks we’ve ever seen — and a great reminder of how amazing cat genetics can be. 😺💫
