February is Pet Dental Health Month! 🦷 Keeping your pet’s teeth healthy can make a HUGE difference in their overall well-being. Dental disease can keep your pet from eating or enjoying daily activities or even cause harmful infections that spread to major organs. Early detection of dental disease may even make the difference between needing to remove teeth or not! Mention dental care to us at your next appointment, and we can help you choose the best options for your pet.
We are doing dentals Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday! We are filling up! Give us a call today!

We are so excited to announce our January Pet of The Month!

“Guinness is a 10 year old chocolate lab. He loves spending time with his brother, Moose. Together they enjoy going with Mom to feed the horses, swimming at the lake during the summer, and enjoy shredding the occasional toy in hopes of finding the squeaker.
Guinness has so much love to give, and is just the happiest guy you will ever meet. He's one of a kind and such a special soul. He is the perfect example of what kindness, devotion, and love can look like with four paws. We can only aspire to have an ounce of all he has given our family, and continues to give.”

We adore you Guinness! Thank you for letting us take care of you!

We are excited to announce our December Pet of the month!

Meet Quill, a 2.5-year-old bundle of pure joy and energy! Quill got his name from Guardians of the Galaxy, inspired by his adoption center name, Starlord. From the moment he joined our family, Quill has brought endless happiness with his playful spirit and irresistible charm.
When Quill isn't busy charming everyone he meets, he's snuggling up as the best cuddle buddy you could ask for. He's also an adventurer at heart -- he loves camping trips and thinks playing in the snow is the greatest thing ever. Quill's boundless love and goofy, sweet nature make him a truly special dog.

We are so excited to welcome Dr. Heather Prochnow to our General Practice team!

Heather grew up in the Chicago suburbs with her family. She attended her first year of college at the University of Illinois before transferring to Lawrence University in Appleton, Wisconsin where she graduated with a B.A. in Biology and Spanish. She then returned to Champaign-Urbana to attend veterinary school at the University of Illinois - ILL! INI! - and graduated in 2012. She practiced locally for a couple of years before moving to Virginia with Jasmine, her little beagle. She worked in the northern Virginia area for 8 years before then moving to Colorado in 2023 with her boyfriend Brian, Jasmine, and their two black cats, Monster and Dexter.
Heather's professional interests include senior/geriatric care, preventative medicine, and dentistry.
Outside of veterinary medicine, Heather is a triathlete and competes in long distance triathlons but her favorite athletic achievement is running a one mile race in an inflatable dinosaur costume! She also enjoys yoga, trail running, baking (though admittedly is very bad at it), and listening to true crime podcasts.

Welcome, Heather!

November is National Pet Cancer Awareness Month. Pets today have a better chance of being successfully treated for neoplasia and cancer than they did before, thanks to advances in early recognition, diagnosis, and treatment. And it all starts with regular check-ups with your veterinarian. Here are a few warning signs to know: http://bit.ly/2OenYrc

Happy Vet Tech Week! 🐾
These vet techs do not get enough credit for the behind the scenes work they do! From cleaning kennels, to taking x-rays, to picking up p**p, drawing blood, to staying after hours, it isn’t a glamorous job! They do it because their passion is your pets!
Please help us recognize the hard work they put into each and every day! We love them!
Fauna, Caitlyn, Amaya, Kiana, Nicole, and Anson pictured. More to come tomorrow!🥰

Welcome our Urgent Care Veterinarian, Sammie Haggard, DVM!

From playing hospital with her stuffed animals as a child, Sammie has always known she was destined to be a veterinarian. After being born and raised in Hong Kong, she moved solo to Sydney, Australia where she underwent her undergraduate and Doctorate degrees. Her career has mostly been concentrated mostly in emergency medicine, but her other passions include diagnostic imaging. She has two cats of her own, Aspen and Opal, who travelled with her all the way from down under. Opal has been blind since rescue and particularly enjoys staring at walls and hiding from her pesky brother.

In her free time, Sammie enjoys anything to do with a body of water and the sunshine - whether it be ocean swimming, kayaking, soaking, or paddling. Since recently moving to Colorado, she's particularly enjoyed getting introduced to hiking at altitude and snow sports. When the weather gets too cold, you can find her seeking warmth in a sauna or curled up somewhere with a good fantasy book.

We are so excited for her to join our team! Please welcome her to our family if you see her!
