Steps to Take During a Pet Emergency
When the unthinkable happens and your pet requires immediate medical attention, you want to be prepared. Sometimes, pet emergencies can occur suddenly and at other times they’re gradual. Here are a few tips on how to respond during your pet’s emergency.
- Remain Calm - This can be difficult, but try to remain calm and pay attention to the specific details surrounding your pet's situation.
- Assess the Full Problem - Take a look at your pet to see if there are any visible signs of injury. If your pet is externally bleeding or broke a bone, quickly assess and call your vet. If your pet is vomiting or acting strange, you may want to make note of any strange behaviors.
- Do What You Can - There is a lot you can do before arriving at the vet depending on the urgency of the situation.
- Call an Emergency Veterinarian in Jacksonville - Our Jacksonville emergency veterinarian hours and contact information are listed above. Call and explain the situation to the veterinarian and do your best to adhere to their instructions.
