One of the best things as a veterinarian is seeing pets you helped live through something many years ago doing their thing today. His is making muffins.

Prevention is the best medicine! 🐾✨

We all want our furry family members to live long, happy, and healthy lives. The secret? Staying ahead of the game with routine preventative care! Just like us, regular checkups and healthy habits keep our pets feeling their absolute best.

Here are 4 essential pillars of preventative care for your pet:

🩺 Annual Wellness Exams: Routine checkups help us spot subtle changes in your pet’s health before they become big problems.

🛡️ Vaccines & Parasite Prevention: Keeping up with flea, tick, heartworm, and vaccine schedules protects them from preventable (and nasty) diseases.

🦷 Dental Care: Healthy teeth mean a healthy heart! Routine dental cleanings and at-home brushing prevent painful buildup and infection.

🥗 Nutrition & Exercise: A balanced diet and daily activity keep their joints nimble and weight in a healthy zone.

Is your pet due for their yearly checkup or a prevention refill? We’re here to help!

📞 Call us today or visit our link in our bio to schedule your next wellness visit. Let's keep those tails wagging together!

🎆 After the fireworks: give your pets a little extra TLC today 🐾

The Fourth of July can be stressful for many pets, and some may still feel anxious, tired, or out of sorts the next day.

Today is a great day to:
✔️ Check your yard and home for firework debris
✔️ Make sure gates, doors, and windows are secure
✔️ Give pets a quiet place to rest
✔️ Watch for signs of stress, upset stomach, coughing, limping, or injury
✔️ Make sure ID tags and microchip information are up to date

Cook Veterinary Hospital is closed today, Sunday, July 5, but we will be open Monday. If your pet is having an emergency, please contact a local veterinary emergency hospital.

Wishing you and your pets a calm, cozy Sunday. 💙

Wishing all of our wonderful clients and their furry companions a happy, healthy, and safe 4th of July! 🎇🐾

Today is all about food, fun, and celebration, but the loud noises later tonight can easily spook even the bravest pets. To ensure the whole family has a great holiday, keep these quick safety tips in mind:

1️⃣ Secure your perimeter: Keep doors, windows, and gates firmly shut. Fireworks can cause pets to panic and try to escape.
2️⃣ Skip the table scraps: As tempting as it is to share that BBQ, foods like onions, grapes, bones, and fatty meats can cause severe stomach upset. Keep the treats pet-friendly!
3️⃣ Stick to the plan: If you picked up anxiety medication from us earlier this week, don't wait for the fireworks to start before administering it. Giving it ahead of time helps keep their baseline stress low.

Emergency Reminder: We will be closed today (Saturday) and tomorrow (Sunday). If you experience a pet emergency, please contact Animal ER Care at 719-260-7141 or Uintah Pet ER at 719-633-3214.

Have a wonderful and safe Independence Day! 🇺🇸❤️
