There when you need us most.

LOCATIONS

Are you experiencing an emergency?

ABC is vital for life: Airway, Breathing, Circulation. Make sure that your pets’ AIRWAY does not appear obstructed, that your pet is BREATHING, that the heart is beating and CIRCULATION of the blood is happening.

Apply compression to stop any flow of blood.

The gums of your pet should be pink – this indicates that ABC is functioning. Lift your pet’s upper lip and notice the colors, pink is good. You should do this often to establish what is normal for your pet. In this way, you will better be able to know what is NOT normal.

For our hospital clients:

During normal business hours CALL one of our hospitals. We can handle most urgent care conditions and in a true emergency, stabilize your pet for the trip to local pet ER – getting supportive treatment started sooner is better. Call first to ensure a doctor is available and will have the time to see your pet. We are NOT a 24-hour fully staffed emergency facility. We do NOT do emergency surgeries. All surgeries are scheduled!
