    Bluffs Veterinary Clinic - Harry in his last hunting season.

    I was in Colorado from Hawaii helping my son move home. He has a dog and we noticed a tooth was…read morechipped and swelling. I did a lot of research and looking through reviews and this place was my first choice. When I called they said they were booked (we were trying to head home quickly so wanted to it done asap). So I was looking for other options and most places were either ridiculously expensive or affordable but didn't have good reviews. We were so fortunate that they had an opening and were able to get us in! They took such good care of our little guy! Thank you!!

In April, my almost 10-year-old English setter, Harry, who had always been a literal chow hound, stopped eating. After a several days of no eating and us spoon-feeding him to keep alive, we took him to our previous vet (northwest Cheyenne practice that I was having serious doubts about to begin with, due to their misdiagnosing a horse we owned) they ran some tests, found what appeared to be cancer, then ran some more tests and wanted to keep him in their hospital. No way, especially when the "DVM" at that place couldn't even get the right chart for him. I wasn't going to let my boy die in that place alone. So we got a 2nd opinion at the Colorado School of Vet Medicine in Ft. Collins. Yes, Harry had an unknown cancer. They gave him some appetite enhancer, offered pallative care medicine and I took him home. Thing is, you'd never know Harry was even sick after he started eating again. He was bouncing around the yard, playing like he usually did with our other setter. We were going to have him put down, and we called on BVM, Dr. Amber Young, to do the deed. I was having second thoughts about it, given his lively nature. Dr. Young came by on the appointed day, listened -- an excellent skill she has -- to our concerns, examined Harry, and agreed that this big guy, a dog wagging his tail and greeting her at the door, didn't need to be put down. She suggested continuing the pallative care meds and seeing what happened as time went on. Three months went by. Harry had a couple of additional visits to BVM for annual shots, etc. A new English setter puppy named Willa came home. And Harry continued to seem healthy by all accounts. I hoped to give him a final hunting season. However, playing in the yard one day in mid-September, he injured his hind leg, an almost ACL-type injury. Dr. Young diagnosed this and the treatment was basically rest and some pain meds. He did fine for a week or so. However, Harry's condition went downhill rapidly. He stopped eating again and no appetite stimulant sparked his interest. It was fast approaching the end for Harry. We called BVM to have a doctor come out so he might leave the world in my arms. Dr. Young was no scheduled, but took her own time to make a special visit to ease Harry into the next world, an incredible thing for any medical professional, let alone a vet, to do. Tears filled everyone's eyes as the big dog let go. I've known only three vets I trusted implicitly in the 35-plus years I've owned English setters, one in Pennsylvania, one in South Dakota, and now the whole gang at BVM. They even sent a sympathy card and everyone in the office signed it. Harry had that kind of capacity to make friends anywhere he went, but BVM, especially Dr. Young, made it special, and I will be forever grateful for the way she and the BVM staff handled his care and passing. Our other two setters continue going there. Dr. Young also helped diagnose a horse issue that proved to be critical in caring for my beloved Tennessee Walking horse mare. I thank her, I thank her, I thank her. This is a very, very good outfit.

    The folks here saved my cat's life!…read more My mom recommended Cheyenne Pet Clicic after taking her cats for shots, teeth removals, etc. Even though I live in Fort Collins, where I'm sure there are a lot of great clinics too, I come here because I have been very impressed with how the clinic runs like a well oiled machine. They see a lot of clients, yet you don't usually have to wait very long to make an appointment or to be seen. All the receptionists, vet techs, and vets I've dealt with here have been super. I took my cat, Tar, for routine shots, then later teeth removal and cleaning. Everyone was very nice and Dr. Calhoon and Ashley took the time to answer any questions I had about the procedures. They even gave me before and after photos of his rotten teeth, X-rays, and let me have the tiny teeth they removed. Recently I noticed Tar was hiding, extremely lethargic, eating less, etc. He was in good spirits but I was concerned because he is FIV (Feline Immune deficiency Virus) positive, which means he can get really sick fast. When I called to make an appointment, the receptionist asked very specific questions to assess how sick he was, the nature of his illness, and she made the soonest available appointment. Within 5 minutes she called me back to let me know there was just a cancellation the day before and they could get him in sooner. I wish I could remember this receptionist's name so I could tell her that she saved his life. When I brought Tar in, Dr. Calhoon didn't immediately run a bunch of random tests, he again asked me very specific questions about his behavior, appetite, bowel movements, etc. He quickly ruled out unnecessary stuff like X-rays and did a saline test and blood smear. Within 10 minutes into the appointment and with a relatively benign, inexpensive test he had figured out he had immune mediated thrombocytopenia and anemia (his immune system was attacking his platelets and red blood cells), probably idiopathic but perhaps from FIV. Because the receptionist had thought to call me back immediately and fit me in for this appointment, and Dr. Calhoon was able to figure out what was going on with a simple saline blood solution, we we able to start treatment immediately with immune suppressants. I brought him back a few times after that to get blood tests and I cannot stress enough how close he was to going over the rainbow bridge. Every day mattered. I had to have some hard conversations about when would be the time to consider either blood transfusion or euthanasia. Dr. Calhoon and all the folks here were incredibly kind and patient in answering everything. It was touch and go for a minute there but Tar seems to be improving and living his best, most spoiled life. Tar goes with me everywhere. I moved across country and started my life over with this critter. He sleeps in my lap for car rides, sits in a chair at the dinner table to watch us eat, curls up next to me wherever I am, and won't even so much as let me go the bathroom without him. Even if the folks at Cheyenne Pet Clinic have only bought me a few more high quality of life months, I am immensely grateful I don't have to say goodbye to my little shadow yet and get to spoil him rotten.

    Price gouging on medication, won't take GoodRX to help and you have to go online to access…read moredifferent prescription rates. But here's the kicker, if you don't check before the charges EACH MONTH, they will NOT notify you. My cats medication has gone from $70 to $130 in the span of a year and a half. Everytime I go In they can't even tell me what tests I'm supposed to have done, but they will hold my pets medication hostage until I do. So I go in, get close to ZERO information on my animals condition or care, they ask ME what tests I'm in for (they never even told me before I came in, so it's guess work) and then I get hit with extra charges and sub par care. The reviews don't lie, these folks are here to take your money ever since Church left and I am actively looking for more passionate and reliable care elsewhere. I can't afford to spend $130 on monthly medication on top of surprise office visits that can range anywhere between $50-$200. I love my animal more than anything in this world, I really do. Diabetes is a lifelong thing once they are on medication. At the absolute bare minimum, educate, show passion and communicate (not when it's just convenient for you financially). Thankfully, her medication is working and her diabetes has been managed. But the issue with this clinic is that they seriously could not care less until it comes to collect the payment.
