Signs of a potential emergency:

Animals have a natural tendency to hide their injuries and acute illness. Seeking immediate medical attention if you suspect an injury provides your pet with the best opportunity to have a positive outcome from their trauma. Delays in seeking medical attention can result in life-threatening consequences or death. It is strongly recommended that you seek emergency care if your pet is experiencing any of the following:

-Accident or injury—Hit by a vehicle, a physical confrontation with another animal, or a great fall

-Bleeding—From an injury or in the urine or feces

-Poisoning or ingestion—Chewed or swallowed a hazardous chemical, plant, chocolates, medication or foreign object (i.e., toys, keys, rocks, etc.)

-Diarrhea/vomiting—Repeated or severe diarrhea or vomiting

-Respiratory difficulties—Repeated coughing, shallow or laboured breathing, or choking

-Behavioural changes—Pacing, aggression, whimpering, sleep changes, or withdrawal from normal activities

-Dietary changes—Loss of appetite or increased urination
