CSU Veterinary Health System

Whether your companion is four-legged, feathered, or furry, our team works with pet owners and referring veterinarians to provide expert, collaborative care.

At the CSU Veterinary Health System, animals and the people who care for them are at the heart of everything we do. Every decision we make reflects our commitment to those who trust us with their animal’s health. That focus inspires us to deliver expert veterinary services, support veterinary education and training, and advance groundbreaking research. We show up every day with passion, eagerness

to collaborate, and a drive to redefine what’s possible. Our deep partnership with the College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences amplifies our impact, enabling us to boldly innovate and share knowledge widely. We believe knowledge is meant to be shared beyond our doors. That’s why we build meaningful partnerships with communities, veterinary professionals, and public health leaders to elevate animal health everywhere.

A promising new test could help make FIP diagnosis more definitive 🐱🔬

With significant progress in treating the disease, we are working on making the diagnosis more definitive. In our latest clinical trial, this immunofluorescent assay showed 78% accuracy in identifying FIP cases.

On June 19, 1865—Juneteenth—news of the Emancipation Proclamation finally reached Texas, marking the end of slavery for the last enslaved African Americans. For generations, Juneteenth has been honored within African American communities as a celebration of freedom, resilience, and liberation. In 2021, it was established as a national holiday in the United States.

Today, Juneteenth is also a time to reflect on the ongoing pursuit of equity.

In veterinary medicine, that work is still very much ongoing. With less than 2% of U.S. veterinarians identifying as African American, Juneteenth provides an opportunity to learn and participate in the efforts to build a profession that reflects the diversity of the communities we serve. We’re grateful to support, listen to, and stand alongside those working to create a more inclusive future for animal health.

We've got a new friend at the Veterinary Hospital and Education Complex 🐾

Thanks to the generosity of donor Eva Knight, our new building has a special greeter waiting to welcome visitors. Elf, a bronze dachshund sculpture standing atop a stack of textbooks, celebrates our commitment to education, discovery, and advancing veterinary medicine.

Be sure to give Elf a high five, then snap an "Elfie" (a selfie with Elf) and tag us in your photo. 📸

Our team was in Seattle for the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine (ACVIM) Forum, connecting with veterinary colleagues from across the country and diving into the latest in veterinary medicine.

Big topics included feline infectious peritonitis (FIP), gastrointestinal neoplasia, and mitral valve regurgitation in dogs, along with so many others. Our veterinarians were there learning, sharing, and contributing to conversations that are shaping the future of veterinary care.

Our team always comes back to Fort Collins energized by the collaboration and grateful for the chance to exchange ideas with colleagues who are just as committed to advancing patient care. Back home with plenty to bring to our patients and veterinary partners.

🩸 One animal's donation can help save another patient's life.

Each year, our Blood Bank supports more than 700 canine and feline blood transfusions, giving patients a second chance during major surgeries, complex illnesses, and life-threatening emergencies.

Just like human hospitals, veterinary medicine relies on a steady supply of donated blood. But unlike people, canine and feline universal donors can be especially difficult to find.

This World Blood Donor Day, we're celebrating the pets and owners who make lifesaving care possible. Learn how the donation process works, why certain blood types are in high demand, and how your pet could help save another animal's life.

World Pet Memorial Day is a reminder of something we already know. Animals stay with us in the lessons they leave behind.

They show us how to love more fully, live more gently, and be a little more present.
