From a late-night emergency to a full recovery, Leo’s story highlights the impact of timely, specialized care.

After suddenly becoming ill, this sweet Maine C**n was diagnosed with a foreign body that required surgery. With the expertise of our surgical team and the support of our dedicated staff, Leo is now back to doing what he loves most, birdwatching, playing, and keeping his family on their toes.

Emergencies can happen without warning, and having a trusted team in place when they do matters most.

A look at some of the cases our emergency team treats every week.

From foreign body ingestions and toxin exposures to respiratory distress and bloat, each case presents its own unique needs.

Our team is available 24/7 to provide prompt care, diagnostics, and treatment when pets need it most.

If your pet is experiencing an emergency, seeking veterinary care right away can be critical to their outcome.

Meet Albondiga 💛 He started his diagnostic journey at AVCC with an abdominal ultrasound, where Dr. Macho’s initial findings were most consistent with IBD, with a low suspicion for GI lymphoma. However, biopsies were necessary to definitively rule out lymphoma. Thankfully, his owner has pet insurance, which helped make pursuing these next steps possible.

We trialed a course of medication, which showed mild improvement, but his hyporexia (decreased appetite) persisted. To get the most accurate answers and guide treatment, we moved forward with GI biopsies.

Results confirmed mild IBD and no GI lymphoma, which was a huge relief! 💛

Albondiga is now starting a tapering course of steroids, and we’ll be monitoring his response closely as we work to get his appetite and comfort back on track.

Now back home, settling in comfortably and getting back to his normal routine 🧶✨

Hookworm eggs like these may be microscopic, but they can have a big impact on your pet’s health, causing issues like anemia, diarrhea, and weakness, especially in puppies and kittens.
The good news? They’re preventable.
Routine f***l testing with your primary veterinarian + monthly parasite prevention = your pet’s best defense.

Our lab team is always on the lookout (even for what you can’t see) to keep your pets safe and healthy. 🐾

Thank you for trusting us with your furbaby! 🐾 So glad Chris and our team could help your boxer feel better.

Meet Gwen 💛 This sweet Golden Retriever puppy came to us for a preventative procedure called Juvenile P***c Symphysiodesis (JPS), a surgery performed in young dogs to help improve how the hip joint develops.

Because Gwen was identified early, she was a great candidate for this procedure, which can help reduce the risk or severity of hip dysplasia as she grows.

From surgery to recovery and all the way to heading home, Gwen did amazing every step of the way. 🐾

Preventative care and early intervention can make a lifelong difference and Gwen is already on the right path 💛✨

When something feels off, trust your gut, just like Shaeleigh’s mom did. 💙 What started as a sudden, late-night illness turned into a serious gallbladder condition that required expert, collaborative care. Thanks to the teamwork between our Surgery, Internal Medicine, and ICU teams, Shaeleigh received the lifesaving treatment she needed and today, she’s back to doing what she loves most.

Toto came through our ER after his owner noticed him sniffing around her sewing supplies and wanted to make sure he hadn’t swallowed anything. Out of caution, our doctors performed X-rays and sure enough, we found a needle and thread that needed to be removed.
Toto was placed under anesthesia and our team performed an endoscopy to safely retrieve it. The procedure went smoothly, and he recovered from anesthesia without any issues.

We’re so happy to see Toto doing well! Cases like his are a great example of how our Emergency team works efficiently to diagnose and treat foreign body ingestions, helping pets get the care they need as soon as possible. 🐾💙

Kittens and puppies are among the most medically vulnerable patients we see.

Because their immune systems are still developing and their vaccine series may not be complete, young pets are at higher risk for serious diseases like:

• Parvovirus in puppies
• Panleukopenia (feline parvo) in kittens
• Severe intestinal parasites
• Rapid dehydration from GI illness

These conditions can progress quickly and become life-threatening without prompt treatment.

If your puppy or kitten shows signs like lethargy, vomiting, diarrhea, loss of appetite, or weakness, seek care immediately. Early intervention can be lifesaving.
