Our beloved 21-year-old grizzly bear, Emmett, is making good progress in his cancer journey. In February, his care team, in collaboration with Colorado State University Veterinary Teaching Hospital and Focused Ultrasound Resources, removed a cancerous mass from his tail.

Emmett fans from all over the world shared messages of support for the bear and his team, embarking on a rare surgical treatment for a grizzly. The team received excellent pathology results: the surgery seems to have been successful at removing all of the cancerous cells in that area. As the veterinarians say and many people will understand, “We got good margins.”

Emmett has been, “the most patient bear,” according to Rebecca Zwicker, Rocky Mountain Wild animal care manager. Pun intended. He has been an exemplary patient, participating in his recovery care with unbelievable consistency.

Daily, his care team and the CMZoo veterinary team ask Emmett to walk over to a fence, where they could monitor his surgical site and clean it through a protective barrier.

It’s ok, you can still kiss this cutie pug despite the warts. You won’t turn into a frog 💋

Tallulah has been seeing our dermatology team for over a year for a severe case of papillomavirus. While these wart-like lesions are most commonly found in the mouth, her case is unique because of how widespread they are. While some cases resolve on their own, Tallulah’s hasn’t and has required ongoing care and more advanced treatment.

Now Drs. Steven Dow and Jeremy Bachtel are teaming up on a clinical study to evaluate a new nanomedicine immunotherapy designed to help the body’s own immune system fight viral infections and cancers. This treatment has been effective in treating several types of cancers in horses and herpesvirus conjunctivitis in cats. Now, they are studying it in dogs with papillomavirus and cancers found in the mouth or skin.

We're pleased with the meaningful progress Tallulah has made and with the way she’s helping move this research forward. Thanks, Tallulah! 🐾

We know it can feel like we’re judging your animal’s waistline, but it’s all for good reason!

But there’s more to it than meets the eye. Our veterinary team uses a Body Condition Score, or BCS, to assess overall body fat, not just appearance. It’s a 1 to 9 scale, with 4 to 5 as ideal.

Each step above that can mean about 10 to 15% over ideal body weight, which can impact comfort, mobility, and long-term health. As cute as a chonky pup is, we love a healthy one even more 🐾
