Dallas Animal Urgent Care

Meet Porkchop, a 6-year-old chihuahua mix who came to us feeling unusually lethargic. After some investigating, the doctor on the case discovered the culprit: a few raw baby potatoes stuck in his stomach! 😲 Porkchop underwent surgery to have the potatoes removed, and we’re happy to report that he’s now back home, recovering comfortably with his loving family. 💕🐶 #DallasAnimalUrgentCare #MidCitiesAnimalUrgentCare #VetMed #EmergencyVet

When Rookie decided to dive into the berry mix, he didn’t realize grapes were a big no-no for pups! 😬 Grapes (and raisins) are highly toxic to dogs and can cause serious kidney damage, even in small amounts. Our team quickly induced vomiting to get the grapes out of Rookie’s system, and he returned the next day for repeat bloodwork to ensure his kidneys were safe. PSA: If your dog eats grapes or raisins, don’t wait—seek veterinary care immediately. Acting fast can save their life. 🩺 Don't forget to return at the vet's recommendation for repeat bloodwork to ensure everything is A-OK from the inside out! #DallasAnimalUrgentCare #VetMed #MidCitiesAnimalUrgentCare #EmergencyVet

Thanks to her quick-thinking paw parents, Zoey is on the mend and ready to get back to her happy self soon! 💕🐶 #DallasAnimalUrgentCare #MidCitiesAnimalUrgentCare #VetMed #EmergencyVet

Meet Emma, a brave pup who visited us for a cuterebra removal—a condition caused by a type of botfly larva that can burrow under the skin of pets. 😲 Fun fact: Cuterebra larvae are typically found in the warmer months and often come from pets sniffing around rabbit or rodent burrows! 🐇🐾 Thanks to her pawrent’s quick action and a little help from our team, Emma is now feeling much better and on the road to recovery. 💕 Reminder: If you notice a strange lump or swelling on your pet, it’s always best to have it checked out! #DallasAnimalUrgentCare #VetMed #EmergencyVet
