If your pet has an emergency, please stay calm for the sake of your pet and call the hospital for us to determine the best course of action for your pet to be seen. Sometimes this may mean that a referral to an emergency facility with dedicated emergency staff is the best option. After clinic hours, please visit one of our referral hospitals.

What Is a Veterinary Emergency?
Any time your pet experiences a trauma, you want to contact a veterinarian at once. Even if there are no apparent symptoms, an animal can be in shock or masking the pain of a serious injury.
Other possible veterinary emergencies include the following situations:
- No heartbeat
- Not breathing or struggling to breathe
- Unconscious
- Persistent vomiting or diarrhea
- Fight
- Vomiting blood
- Obvious or suspected broken bones
- Seizures
- Bleeding
- Fall
- Possible ingestion of a toxic substance
- Collapse or inability to stand up
- Disorientation or bumping into household objects
- Eye injury or irritation
- Swollen abdomen
- Pregnant pet in labor but showing no progress toward delivery
- Hit by car
A pet demonstrating symptoms of extreme pain, such as whining, shaking, and refusing to socialize, should see a vet as soon as possible.
