If you think your pet has ingested a toxin or potentially harmful substance, please call the ASPCA Poison Control Hotline at (888) 426-4435 or visit their website for a complete reference of toxic plants with pictures. The ASPCA does charge a phone consultation fee, but the information you’ll get is very valuable and absolutely worth the cost.

What to expect once you’re here

1. You will be welcomed by one of our customer care specialists. Depending on the type of emergency, your pet may be immediately taken to the treatment area for stabilization where we have access to life-saving equipment. In these circumstances, you may be asked to provide immediate financial authorization.

2. If emergency stabilization is not needed, an emergency technician will bring you into an examination room to assess your pet’s vitals (heart rate, respiratory rate, and temperature) and obtain a history. Next, the emergency doctor will review the technician’s notes, perform an examination and discuss diagnostic and treatment options with you. You will be provided an estimate for the recommendations.

3. In some emergency cases, hospitalization is recommended. We offer 24-hour care. Your pet will be closely monitored by our doctors, technicians and staff. If any changes occur during the night, we will update you.
