🚨 Skunked?! Don’t Panic. 🚿🦨

If your pet had an unfortunate run-in with a skunk, resist the urge to reach for the tomato juice — there’s a better solution!

The right cleaning combo can make a big difference, and we’ve got the go-to skunk spray removal recipe in the graphic below.

⚠️ Remember:
• Avoid getting the solution in your pet’s eyes, ears, or mouth
• Don’t store the mixture — it’s meant to be used fresh
• Call your vet if your pet was sprayed directly in the face or is acting abnormally

Save this post for later... just in case your next walk gets a little too wild! 🐾💨

The cat breed in this week's Pet Puzzler is the Scottish Fold! 🐱✨

Did you guess it right? Here are some fun facts about these sweet, round-faced felines:

🔹 Signature Ears: Their iconic folded ears are caused by a natural genetic mutation, giving them a unique and adorable look. 🌀👂
🔹 Owl-Like Appearance: With their big, round eyes and compact bodies, Scottish Folds are often said to resemble owls! 🦉
🔹 Laid-Back Companions: They’re known for their calm, affectionate personalities and often enjoy lounging in quirky positions—like the famous “sit up” pose. 🛋️
🔹 All Folds Start Straight: Kittens are actually born with straight ears—if they’re going to fold, it typically starts around 3 to 4 weeks of age!

Thanks for playing along! Stay tuned for more fun pet trivia in our next Pet Puzzlers post! 🐾

☀️ Summer Safety Series - Hiking with Pets

Before you embark on a fun-filled day of hiking, be sure to keep the following tips in mind.

Don’t Forget:
💧 WATER
🐕 P**P BAGS
🍖 TREATS
⛰️ PET BOOTIES
💚 LEASH

1. Visit Your Veterinarian - Be sure your pet is up-to-date on all shots as well as flea and tick preventatives. Always confirm with your family veterinarian that your pet is healthy enough for hiking.

2. Research - Always make sure that the area you are hiking in allows pets. It is also important to take note of what type of animals and flowers are present near the trails you plan to explore. Many wild plants can be poisonous to pets and certain wildlife can pose a threat to our pets.

3. Microchipping and ID Tags - Has your pet’s microchip and ID tag been updated? Summer is a big season for lost pets for a variety of reasons, so it is important to have preventatives in place before you go hiking. Pets can get very excited with all the new sights and smells, and their curiosity may cause them to wander more than usual!

🍫 It’s World Chocolate Day! 🍫

There’s one kind of chocolate we do approve of… the kind with a wagging tail and floppy ears. 🐶💛 Shoutout to all the sweet Chocolate Labs out there making our lives better (and definitely not toxic)!

But remember: while the pup in the photo is totally safe to snuggle, the edible kind of chocolate is dangerous for dogs. Even small amounts can cause vomiting, increased heart rate, or seizures—especially darker varieties.

So today, treat yourself—but stash those sweets out of paw’s reach. Your dog will be just as happy with a walk, a game of fetch, or a crunchy (canine-approved) snack. 🦴

🎆 Happy 4th of July! 🎆

As you celebrate with cookouts, fireworks, and fun, don’t forget to keep your pets safe and comfortable:
🐾 Keep them indoors during fireworks
🎇 Create a calm, quiet space if they’re anxious
🍔 Avoid sharing table food that might upset their stomach
🚫 Watch out for open flames, sparklers, and dropped skewers

Wishing you and your furry friends a safe and joyful Independence Day! 🐶🐱

☀️ Summer Safety Series - Boating with Dogs 🚤 🐶

✅ Life Jackets: Just like us, pups need life jackets too! Ensure they have one that fits snugly and keep it on throughout the trip.
✅ Hydration Station: Bring plenty of fresh water for your pup to drink. An insulated, portable water bottle that comes with a bowl, for example, is easy to carry and keeps your dog’s water cold.
✅ Paw Protection: Hot surfaces like boat decks can burn sensitive paw pads. Consider paw wax or booties to protect their precious paws.
✅ Sun Protection: Dogs can get sunburned too! Apply pet-safe sunscreen to exposed areas, especially on lighter fur.
✅ Supervision: Always keep an eye on your furry friend. Even strong swimmers can get tired or disoriented in open water.

🌀 When it comes to emergency plans, practice makes prepared — even for pets!

Here’s how to include your furry friend in drills:
🚪 Practice evacuating with your pet on leash or in a carrier
🏠 Create a “safe space” in your home for weather events
🧳 Review your pet’s emergency kit together once a year
📆 Schedule ID and microchip checks during annual exams

A calm pet is a safe pet — and a little practice now can make a big difference later.

💧 National Hydration Day 💧

Just like us, our pets need plenty of water to stay healthy—especially during the hot summer months! Hydration supports everything from temperature regulation to organ function and joint health.

🐶 Tips to Keep Your Pet Hydrated:
✔️ Always provide access to fresh, clean water
✔️ Bring a travel bowl on walks or outings
✔️ Add water or low-sodium broth to food for extra moisture
✔️ Watch for signs of dehydration: lethargy, dry gums, and sunken eyes

Let’s raise a bowl to good health—keep those tails wagging and whiskers purring with proper hydration! 💦🐾

Our Story

We moved to Orland Park in October 2018!

Premier Veterinary Group acquired EVCS in 2012. By summer 2013, we expanded to offer 24-hour emergency 365 days a year. Soon after, we added the specialties of advanced surgery and internal medicine by referral from your family veterinarian. In October 2018, we expanded yet again and moved the hospital to a 12,000 square foot facility in Orland Park. We are a thoughtful, dedicated group of individuals with a profound desire to share our gifts of healing and understanding with companion pets and their families. With the addition of our third practice in Crestwood, Illinois, we now care for pets and handle animal emergencies throughout the Chicagoland area, including the far North suburbs (Grayslake) and the City of Chicago at the corner of Belmont and Pulaski.
