Veterinarians in Mancos, CO

“Dr. Rose A. Bernholtz is truly a lifesaver. On the afternoon of July 3rd, our 5-month-old puppy, Copper, was brutally attacked by a neighbor’s pitbull in our yard. It was late in the day before a holiday weekend, and despite calling multiple veterinary and emergency clinics, no one would see him including Durango.

Dr. Bernholtz stayed late to help when no one else would. Copper had devastating injuries, including a crushed skull and serious trauma to his nose, jaw, and neck. She immediately took X-rays, managed his pain, and provided the emergency care he desperately needed.

Her compassion, expertise, and dedication saved Copper’s life. In one of the most frightening moments our family has ever experienced, she went above and beyond for our puppy and our family. We are forever grateful to Dr. Bernholtz and the entire team at Mancos Valley Veterinary Hospital. They are the kind of people you hope are there when you need them most.

They have been caring for my pets for over 2 years now and it’s always a good experience. Thank you!”
