Emergency Care

At Dr. Paws, we understand that some health conditions in pets cannot wait and may require immediate veterinary intervention to save their lives or reduce complications. That is why we have dedicated this page to help you recognize emergency situations and take the correct actions before arriving at the clinic.

First: Cases that require immediate arrival

Please head to the clinic urgently if you notice any of the following conditions:

• Difficulty or cessation of breathing

• Continuous bleeding or deep injuries

• Loss of consciousness or fainting

• Seizures or neurological attacks

• Severe and repeated vomiting or diarrhea, especially if accompanied by blood

• Swallowing a foreign object or toxic substances

• Severe abdominal swelling or signs of acute pain

• Difficulty or inability to urinate

• Falls or road traffic accidents

• High fever or abnormal lethargy

Second: Initial instructions before arrival

In case of any emergency, follow these guidelines to protect your pet and reduce risks:

• Stay as calm as possible to avoid increasing your pet’s stress

• Do not give human medications or any treatment without veterinary advice

• If there is bleeding, apply gentle pressure using gauze or a clean cloth

• In case of suspected poisoning, keep a sample of the substance or its packaging if possible

• Transport your pet carefully in a box or blanket to avoid further injury

• Avoid feeding or giving water in cases of vomiting or loss of consciousness

• Contact the clinic immediately to inform the team before arrival

At Dr. Paws, our team is always ready to receive emergency cases and provide immediate care with the highest level of professionalism and attention, because every minute can make a difference in your pet’s life.
