Good advice! Let's avoid problems if we can.

We have noticed a lot of mushrooms cropping up in the yard with all this rain. Not all mushrooms are toxic but it's hard to identify which ones will cause which side effects. it's just best to avoid them and don't let your cat or dog nibble on them. If your pet does eat a mushroom and there are more around, take a photo since some times social media and mushroom experts can help us identify them. Otherwise keep it in a paper bag so it can be identified at a later date. Mushrooms will turn to goo in a plastic bag very quickly! We might be over reacting by saying avoid all mushrooms but prevention goes a long way in emergency medicine for toxins!

🦨 My dog has been skunked twice this year already 😣 This product has worked the best at eliminating most of the unpleasant smell. We have some in stock! I now have a bottle on hand at my house at all times.

A reminder that everyone needs to think about...

A common preventable and tragic emergency we see at EMEVC is rat poison exposure. Rat poison can kill dogs and cats as well. Some owners seem surprised by this fact but it's poisonous to many creatures. They can last for a very long time and even if you didn't put it down, the previous home owners or renters etc may have put it down.

It is often enticing to eat and placed in areas that are easily accessible to small pets.

Some of the newer poisons are very effective in killing animals and immediate action is required.

Knowing the specific type of poison is very helpful.

All varieties can be green.

Even the ones with antidotes can be life threatening and very expensive to treat. A blood transfusion will cost about $1,000 and they can require multiple. The Vitamin K costs less than $100 for post pets.

There is no antidote for the brain toxin. Don't buy it. Don't use it. It's terrible to see the effects on your pet. Not worth it.

Using a snap trap is safer for your pet and a quicker less terrible death for the mice/rats. It can also save the wild life in your area from toxin exposure.

We are currently diverting emergencies due to high volume and at maximum capacity. Please call ahead if you have a priority 1/red emergency only. Other cases should head to other emergency clinics in the state until we are able to open to outside cases again.

We thank you for your patience and understanding while we do our best on this busy holiday weekend.
