Most importantly……..DON’T PANIC - REMAIN CALM.
Protect yourself from imjury, pets in pain may scratch or bite. You may want to carefully wrap a large towel or blanket around your pet.
If there is a chance of back or neck injury, carefull place the pet on a wooden board or padded ironing board and minimize movement during transportation.
Apply direct pressure to any area with active bleeding.
In case of possible poisoning, seek immediate treatment and bring any product packaging.
Call your family veterinarian for advice in any possible emergency situation.

When should you take your pet? When you have an emergency at a time your family veterinarian is not available, your pet needs a special procedure such as ultrasound, endoscopy, advanced surgery or a cancer therapy, your pet would benefit from a consultation with a specialist, or your pet needs post-surgical or continual critical care.

Does your dog lunge and bark at other animals during his walk or at the park? It?s a common and embarrassing problem, one that even the nicest dogs may have.
Lack of socialization could be the cause. Your dog may simply need more experience with other dogs to learn the proper circling and sniffing etiquette. Owner attitude and energy have as much to do with a dog’s behavior as the dog’s own make up. Your leash is an antenna and you’re sending subtle signals to your dog, whether you mean to or not.
If you’re on your nightly walk and see another dog approaching, be aware of your body language and feelings:
