It’s hard to know how to prepare for an emergency with your pet because it hurts to think that something could happen where they need emergency medical care. Here is some great advice from our friends at Austin Veterinary Emergency & Specialty Center to help you be prepared should your pet ever need emergency care. Do you have a plan in case of medical emergencies? We’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments!

If your pet is ever injured and unable to walk, transporting them to the emergency vet can be a challenge. Here are some tips if you need to urgently and carefully move your pet to get them medical attention:

🚑 Towels, blankets, bedsheets, or pet beds can double as a pet stretcher to carry and lift your pet into the car carefully.
🚑 If you live alone and have a large dog breed, you could invest in a wheeled pet stretcher or wagon to have on hand just in case.
🚑 Injured animals are more likely to bite or claw out of fear or pain so be careful when moving your pet. For dogs, you may need to use a temporary muzzle to prevent a bite injury. For cats, it is best to approach them from behind and wrap them in a thick towel or blanket to protect yourself from biting or scratching.
🚑 Handle the injured animal as little as possible to prevent further injury to the pet or yourself.
🚑 If you are able to, call the emergency vet to alert them you are on the way so they can prepare for your arrival.

If you experience an emergency with your pet, you can call us at 512-343-2837. We're here 24/7/365 for your emergency pet care needs.

Today’s Summer Pet Safety Tip from our friends at Austin Veterinary Emergency & Specialty Center is to test the pavement temperature with the back of your hand for 7-10 seconds, and if you aren’t able to keep your hand there it is too hot for your pet’s bare paws 🐾 Try walking in the early mornings or later in the evenings to avoid the hot pavement.
