We all know the terrible, sinking feeling: There's something wrong with my beloved pet

Maybe they're hacking non-stop. Maybe they accidentally ate a serving of your TikTok pasta off the counter. Maybe they cut themselves digging a hole in the yard. Before you freak out, know that in Colorado, they're going to be in good hands. Why? Because according to OneVet, Denver has some of the highest-ranked veterinarians in the country.

I remember when our family dog Scarlett was diagnosed with cancer in 2015. It had spread throughout her back leg and to stop the spread to the rest of her body, veterinarians said the best course of action was to amputate. We took her to the CSU Veterinary Teaching Hospital where the staff took away Scarlett's back leg and saved her life, giving her another wonderful, happy five years with my family. I'll always be grateful to the incredible staff there.

So, what is it about Denver that makes our vets better than everywhere else? According to OneVet, Denver ranked third on the top list of vets with its doctors garnering a 4.32 out of 5 ranking.

The top-rated veterinary offices are located in Austin, Texas: keeping Austin weird and its pets very safe.

Overall, we're lucky to live in a state where our pets can receive the highest quality of care because pets aren't just pets, they're family. I'll always remember the incredible care Scarlett got that allowed her to spend her final years with us...and to spend them happily.
