Situations that Require
Emergency Care in Pets
Although every sneeze and sniffle from your precious fur baby may cause you concern, not all issues constitute an emergency that requires urgent care. However, if your beloved companion is experiencing any of the following conditions, contact our hospital immediately:
Excessive vomiting or diarrhea
Uncontrollable bleeding from a wound
Bleeding from the nose, mouth, rectum, coughing up blood, or blood in the urine
Seizures
Limping or lameness that has not resolved with rest
Broken bones
Allergic reactions to vaccines or insects
Toxin exposure or poisoning
Difficulty breathing
Painful or inability to urinate or defecate
Eye injuries
Heatstroke
Frostbite
Refusal to drink for more than 24 hours
If you’re unsure your pet is experiencing an emergency that requires urgent care, please call us. We will triage your pet’s condition over the phone and offer advice as to whether your pet requires immediate care or if it can wait. These are our directions to our ER clinic for after-hour use: SAVES 770-460-8166, 1090 Highway 54 East, Fayetteville, GA 30214.
