Pets feel not well just like we do. Pet parents worry the pet’s situation will worsen. It’s when a pet encounters a trauma, though, that pet parents should get her to an emergency veterinarian hospital in Bowie fast. These are reasons this is so important.
1. Vomiting And/Or Diarrhea
This could be due to an ordinary stomach upset. If it lasts longer than 24 hours, pain is involved, the animal is weak and/or lethargic, or there’s blood in the vomit or stool/urine, get her to the animal hospital quickly.
2. Breathing Problems
Difficulty breathing could be due to colds, asthma, heart or lung problems, allergies, or foreign bodies in the throat. If your pet is wheezing, coughing, breathing shallow, or choking, get her to the vet immediately.
3. Difficulty Urinating
This is a sign of a deeper illness. If your pet is straining and only drops come out or none at all, she could have a blockage in the urethra. She should visit the emergency veterinarian hospital in Bowie right now.
4. GDV Or Bloat
Gastric Dilation Volvulus is when the stomach twists and is serious enough to warrant a trip to the animal hospital. Your pet will try to vomit after a large meal but will only bring up frothy white liquid. Her belly will be distended, and she won’t stop trying to vomit. Get her help quickly.
