Book your first visit

During open hours we see urgent problems the same day, without an appointment. Call on the way so we are ready. Overnight and on Sundays, the nearest 24-hour emergency hospital is the right place, and we pick up the follow-up care the next morning.

What you might notice

Eating something toxic, a bite or cut, sudden limping, repeated vomiting, a swollen face, straining to pee or eyes that are suddenly red or cloudy.

How we treat it

A triage check within minutes of arrival, and the most urgent pet is seen first.

Pain relief and stabilization first, then X-rays and lab work on site.

A clear estimate, and a transfer with records to a 24-hour hospital if your pet needs overnight care.

Common questions

My dog ate chocolate. What do I do?

Call us right away with your dog’s weight, the type of chocolate and how much. Dark and baking chocolate are the most dangerous. Do not make your dog vomit unless a vet tells you to.

Is a male cat straining to pee urgent?

Yes. A blocked bladder can be fatal within a day. Come in now, or go to an emergency hospital if we are closed.

Do I need an appointment?

No. Call on the way and come straight in during open hours.

What does it cost?

An urgent exam is $95. We give you an estimate before any tests or treatment.

This page is general information, not a diagnosis. Every pet is different. Trouble breathing, a seizure, a hard swollen belly or heavy bleeding needs an emergency hospital now.
