Surgeon
Dr Chad Pilgeram grew up in Plains, Montana. Growing up on a farm and cattle ranch in western Montana, he has always enjoyed being active outdoors and being around animals. This early path shines through in just about everything he pursues. After undergraduate studies at Montana State University, he received his Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree in 1991 from the Oregon State University/Washington State University collaborative program.
After graduating from veterinary school, he and his wife, Denise (also a veterinarian), settled in the rural Yakima Valley. Being in a busy agricultural area, surgical skills were necessary to help dogs and cats recover from all categories of injuries. This solidified his interest in surgery and eventually led to a narrower career progression, now limited to helping dogs and cats recover from a wide range of treatments for traumatic and athletic orthopedic injuries. He has been driven by his love of seeing animals recover from injuries and their incredible ability to heal.
He now resides in north Spokane County. His grown daughters, Natalie and Rachel, are no longer living at home, but he and his wife of 35 years will continue to be surrounded by pets and animals. When not in the surgery room, he can often be found engaged in activities involving family and friends, encouraging them to participate in some energetic outdoor gatherings. He enjoys gardening, hiking, backpacking, adventure traveling, and is a lifelong runner.

Surgeon
Katherine was born in Stone Mountain, Georgia, and graduated from the US Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, in 2005, continuing to serve 5 years in the US Marine Corps after graduation as a legal administration officer. She discovered a love of medicine while working as a volunteer for a Combined Medical Exercise, helping to teach Iraqi civilians basic medical care during her deployment in 2007. After her deployment to Iraq, she continued her medical education while serving in the Marines stateside by becoming an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) and working on an ambulance on weekends, stationed in Arizona.
After an honorable discharge from the Marines, she attended Colorado State University, where she graduated with a Master's degree in Biomedical Science and a Doctorate in Veterinary Medicine in 2015. Katherine has a love of sports and athletic movement, competing in cross-country ski events in the winter and mountain biking events in the summer. She has attended numerous continuing education courses over the years to refine her skills in evaluating lameness in animals and, when necessary, pursuing surgical treatment. She loves helping her patients recover from injuries and seeing them return to the activities they love.

Had a great experience working with Josh! Super easy to work with and really knows his stuff - especially when it comes to lighting and editing for interior shots. The photos turned out amazing, with just the right vibe we were going for. We ended up adding a few extra shot requests last minute, and Josh had no problem fitting them in. He also helped with staging, which made a big difference, and the drone footage was a great bonus. His pricing was very reasonable for the quality we got. Great value for money. We’ll definitely be hiring him again for future shoots!
Can’t thank you guys enough I have my dog back. It was a long eight weeks, but it was so worth it. She’s back to swimming and playing and being herself.
We have nothing but great things to say about Cougar Digital Marketing! Travis took the time to understand our goals, worked around our schedule, and went above and beyond to make our vision come to life. Ashley was a whiz and was always available when we needed her. Our site turned out better than we imagined. Can't recommend them enough.
This was the best experience I could have asked for in the situation. We were able to schedule our appointment within a week of diagnosis, this was amazing as most places were 5 weeks out plus.
