Location & Areas We Serve
History
Dr. Jean Cotton, the founder of Avenues Pet Clinic, was a pioneer in the Cheyenne veterinary medicine community. Suddenly finding herself a single mother in 1971, Jean was left with her daughters, her courage and wisdom, and a fierce determination for her life to mean something.
When Jean visited with an advisor in Laramie and told him she wanted to go to veterinary school, he mocked her ambition. She came home that day and immediately purchased books to study for, and eventually pass, the entrance exams for the University of Wyoming. After completing her pre-veterinary college coursework, her dream became reality when she was accepted into the Colorado State University College of Veterinary Medicine in 1977. Not wanting to uproot her daughters, she commuted throughout the four year program to minimize the burden on her children.
Dr. Cotton graduated in 1980 only to find that none of the Cheyenne veterinary practices would hire her. Still struggling to make ends meet she took matters into her own hands and converted her garage into an emergency clinic where she started to establish herself with the pet-owning community in Cheyenne.
In May 1983, she opened Avenues Pet Clinic on 8th Avenue and early on hired Dr. Rod Hartshorn, an Air Force veterinarian recently assigned to F.E. Warren AFB. With her savvy management and ethical business practices the clinic quickly grew. Over time she built Avenues into an extended hour multi-doctor general and emergency practice. In 1986 the practice relocated to 5520 Yellowstone Road where it resides today.
In 2005 her daughter, Ruth, and Dr. Hartshorn purchased ownership of Avenues Pet Clinic from Dr. Cotton. Katy, her other daughter, stayed on the Board keeping the practice a family affair. In 2016, three years after Dr. Cotton's passing, Ruth and Dr. Hartshorn sold ownership of Avenues Pet Clinic to Stith Keiser and Curo Pet Care who own and manage i
