Memorial Day Pet Safety Tips 🇺🇸🐾

As we honor and remember our heroes this Memorial Day, don’t forget to keep your furry friends safe during the holiday festivities!

Here are a few quick safety tips to protect your pets this weekend:

🛟 Watch the Water: Pools, lakes, and beaches can pose serious risks. Not all pets are strong swimmers, and water safety gear is always a good idea.

🌭 Skip the Table Scraps: BBQ food might smell delicious, but fatty meats, bones, and sauces can lead to serious digestive issues.

☀️ Beware of Heat Exhaustion: Keep pets indoors or in shaded areas during the hottest parts of the day. Never leave them in a parked car!

💧 Hydration is Key: Make sure your pets have access to plenty of fresh, cool water—especially if they’re spending time outdoors.

We're here when you need us.

Steel City Emergency Vets is open 24/7 - including all holidays - to provide critical care and advanced referral services like CT, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, and Surgical Referrals.

Have a safe and pet-friendly Memorial Day!

🐾 Harper's Journey: From Critical to Courageous

Ten days in the ICU. Eight days on high-flow oxygen. And last week—Harper walked out of our hospital on his own four paws.

Harper was transferred to us from one of our valued referring veterinary partners after he began struggling to breathe. The call came in on a Friday afternoon: “We have a patient in trouble—he’ll be there in 20 minutes.” Our ICU team immediately mobilized. Technicians and a gurney were waiting at the door. Oxygen was on standby.

Just a day earlier, Harper had a normal Thursday. But like many curious doodles, he got into something in the yard he shouldn't have. After vomiting once, things quickly took a turn. By Friday morning, Harper was in respiratory distress, and his primary care vet worked quickly to stabilize him—oxygen, diagnostics, and emergency treatment. X-rays confirmed the worst: severe bilateral aspiration pneumonia.

When Harper arrived at our ICU, his oxygen saturation was in the 70s and he was cyanotic. We started oxygen therapy via nasal cannula, IV fluids, and aggressive antibiotics. Despite our best efforts, by Saturday night, Harper had become septic and was rapidly declining.

That’s when we turned to high-flow oxygen therapy—a more advanced and intensive form of respiratory support. Unlike traditional oxygen therapy, high-flow delivers heated, humidified oxygen at higher rates and with greater precision, helping veterinary patients breathe easier by reducing the work of breathing and improving oxygen exchange. It’s a critical tool in treating patients with severe respiratory compromise.

Harper’s family made the brave decision to continue care, and with their trust and our team’s relentless efforts, Harper slowly turned the corner. Each day, he fought harder—and so did we.

Ten days later, Harper left our hospital, tail wagging and head high. He’s not just a survivor—he’s a testament to teamwork, advanced veterinary care, and the unwavering love of a family who never gave up.

We’re so proud of you, Harper. Thank you for letting us be part of your story. 🩺
