My Pet Got Skunked! Is It An Emergency? 🦨

That unmistakable smell usually means one thing👃🏼… your pet had an unfortunate run-in with a skunk!

Here’s what to do:

Keep them outside if possible to avoid bringing the oily spray into your home. Trust us on this one!

Skip the tomato juice 🍅 It’s a myth and won’t neutralize the odor.

Use this odor-neutralizing mixture instead:

• 1 quart of 3% hydrogen peroxide
• ¼ cup baking soda
• 1–2 teaspoons of liquid dish soap

Follow instructions on the image above 👆

Call your veterinarian right away if:

Your pet was sprayed in the eyes or mouth

They are squinting, excessively drooling, vomiting, or having trouble breathing

They seem weak, lethargic, or develop pale gums after the encounter

Your pet was bitten by the skunk

Skunks are most active around dawn and dusk, so keeping pets leashed and supervised during those times can help prevent future encounters.

If you’re unsure whether your pet needs to be seen, give your regular veterinarian or local emergency hospital (us!) a call. We are happy to guide you. If you do arrive at any vet facility with a skunked pet, please call in before bringing your pet directly into the lobby.

Fourth of July celebrations are coming up, which can present a real challenge to pets with noise anxieties 😰🧨💥 Below are some quick tips to help keep your pet safe and sound this weekend.

🏥 Plan ahead. Although emergency clinics will be open and are willing to help, preparing ahead of time with your regular veterinarian is the best option for getting sedation prescriptions filled. By law, all pets must be examined by a veterinarian in order to receive any prescription medications. If you arrive at an emergency hospital for sedatives on a busy holiday evening, you may have to be very patient. Emergency visits are based on triage, which means the most critical patients will be seen first.

🏠 Be sure to keep pets in a safe, secure and indoor location. Adrenaline from fear of loud firework booms can cause pets to do things out of the ordinary such as jump fences, dig out of backyards, climb out windows etc. Put on some background noise in a quiet room, close windows and curtains and snuggle your pet up in their bed or crate with their favorite busy toy or activity. Never leave them unattended in a backyard or car.

🧨 Keep pets away from all fireworks, at all times. Even small sparklers can cause serious injury or be extremely frightening to our pets.

🏷️ Make sure your pet’s identification is up to date. This includes collars, tags and microchip information.

We hope you have a wonderful holiday weekend! We are always here, 24/7, if your furry loved one should need emergency veterinary care. 💙❤️🐾

Chico is here to educate the class on the dangers of ingesting corn cobs!🌽 A popular food item at the dinner table or festive BBQ gatherings, it can seem tempting to toss your pup an ear 🌽 to chew on when you’re done with it. Corn cobs also seem to be a fan favorite treasure for dumpster diving pups 😆🗑️ 🍌 🦴 Since corn cobs cannot be digested, they cause a serious risk of GI obstruction when ingested which can lead to emergency surgery. Luckily, Chico’s owners acted fast and we were able to induce vomiting to bring those cobs right back up. It took 3 rounds of apomorphine to retrieve the 🌽 🌽 🌽 from Chico, but we successfully got it out. 💙❤️ 🐾

This cute lil guy is Jack. He came in because he was crying in pain and was sent home with pain medication to keep him comfortable. ❤️‍🩹 Jack’s owner shared his story with us- At 3 months old he had parvo, kennel cough, and a broken leg, all at the same time! 🥺 Now he is 8 and has a wonderful family that loves him. Awww. Feel better, Jack! ❤️💙 🐾 ❤️

Fourth of July celebrations are coming up fast (in just a couple of weeks!), which can present a real challenge to pets with noise anxieties. 🧨

We recommend contacting your regular vet office soon if you are concerned that your pet may need sedatives to get through the fireworks. 💊

Although emergency clinics will be open, preparing ahead of time with your regular veterinarian is the best option. All pets must be examined by a veterinarian in order to receive any prescription medications. Coming to an ER during a busy holiday for sedatives can result in many hours of waiting, as critical patients will always be first priority.

As always, we will be open 24/7 for emergency services for the holiday. ❤️💙🐾

Hot dawg! 🥵

We have our first local *HEAT ADVISORY* for 2026, starting this Sunday 6/14 -Tuesday 6/16 ☀️

The next few days are predicted to reach temperatures around 95-99 in the surrounding areas and we want your furry friends to be safe!

It would be best to avoid all outdoor exercise for your pooch (cats too!) in extreme heat and keep them indoors with air conditioning as much as possible.

Excessive panting can be the first symptom of heat stroke in dogs. A dangerously overheated dog may collapse or have convulsions, exhibit vomiting or diarrhea, and have gums or a tongue that turn blue or bright red.

Other warning signs of heat stroke include glazed eyes, excessive drooling, a rapid heart rate, dizziness or lack of coordination, fever, lethargy, and loss of consciousness. If your dog shows any of these symptoms, or even if you are slightly unsure, please contact your regular veterinar rian or local veterinary emergency hospital ASAP.

• As always, do NOT leave your dog or cat in a car for any amount of time in the heat, or even in mild warmer temperatures, and be careful of hot surfaces such as asphalt during walks that can easily burn your dog’s pads.

Stay safe and stay cool everyone! 💦

While these may vary due to the seasons (ahem, there is definitely a Chocolate Season 🍫) these are 5 Pet Emergencies that we see often 🐾

1️⃣ Difficulty Breathing

Labored breathing, excessive panting, or blue/pale gums require immediate attention.

2️⃣ Toxin/Item Ingestion

Chocolate, xylitol, medications, rodenticides, grapes/raisins, and many household products can be life-threatening if ingested. This one is pretty common and a close tie with nonfood item ingestions.

3️⃣ Trauma & Injuries

Hit by a car, falls, bite wounds, abscesses, or any significant injury should be evaluated right away.

4️⃣ Vomiting or Diarrhea

Especially if accompanied by lethargy, blood, or inability to keep water down.

5️⃣ Seizures or Collapse

Any seizure, sudden weakness, collapse, or loss of consciousness is an emergency.

🐾 If your pet is experiencing any of the signs above, seek veterinary care immediately. We are here 24/7/365 when your pet needs us most.❤️💙
