Pets can’t tell us when they are hurting, and you may question what indicates an emergency. Some common emergencies pets experience are injuries due to accidents or falls, choking, household poisoning, heatstroke, or other life-threatening situations. Signs that your furry friend is experiencing an emergency include vomiting, diarrhea, bleeding, shaking, seizures, difficulty breathing, changes in temperature, or difficulty standing. More apparent signs your pet needs emergency care include broken bones or falling unconscious.
The above is not an exhaustive list of symptoms of emergencies, only some of the common ones. If you have any concerns about your pet's health, seek immediate veterinary assistance. After all, you know your pet better than anyone else, and if you are concerned, your pet likely requires medical attention.
