An occasional loose stool happens.

But frequent or severe diarrhea, blood in the stool, repeated vomiting, weakness, abdominal pain, or signs of dehydration deserve more attention.

Puppies, kittens, senior pets, and pets with other medical conditions can also become dehydrated more quickly.

If your pet seems sick beyond the diarrhea itself, it is time to have them evaluated.

Happy Veterinary Technician Week! 💙

When a pet arrives at our hospital in need of emergency care, our veterinary technicians are there every step of the way.

They're placing IV catheters, monitoring anesthesia, administering treatments, watching for subtle changes, and providing reassurance when it's needed most.

Their work requires knowledge, quick thinking, compassion, and an incredible amount of heart.

To our amazing veterinary technicians: Thank you for the countless ways you make a difference for our patients, their families, and our entire team. We're so grateful for you! 🐾

Difficulty breathing is not always dramatic.

You may notice your pet breathing faster than usual while resting, using their belly more to breathe, stretching their neck out, being unable to settle, or breathing with their mouth open when that is unusual for them.

Breathing problems can become serious quickly. If your pet seems to be struggling for air, seek emergency care right away.

Small Wound...Big Problem?

Not every emergency starts with a dramatic injury.
A small puncture wound, bite, or cut may not seem serious at first, but bacteria trapped beneath the skin can quickly lead to infection.

If a wound becomes swollen, painful, starts draining, or your pet seems uncomfortable, don't wait to have it examined.

A small cut may stop bleeding with a little pressure. But if bleeding is heavy, continues despite steady pressure, or st...

A small cut may stop bleeding with a little pressure. But if bleeding is heavy, continues despite steady pressure, or starts again as soon as pressure is released, your pet may need emergency care.

If you can do so safely, keep your pet calm and apply gentle, steady pressure with a clean cloth or gauze while you seek veterinary care.

Some have paws. Some have feathers. Some have scales.

And somehow, they all have a way of becoming part of the family.

This World Animal Day, we’re celebrating the animals we love, the people who care for them, and the bond that makes veterinary medicine so meaningful to us.

Happy World Animal Day! ❤️🐾

It's normal for water intake to vary from day to day—but a sudden increase in drinking can sometimes signal an underlying medical condition.

If you've noticed your pet emptying the water bowl more often than usual, especially if they're also urinating more frequently or losing weight, it's worth scheduling an examination.

A curious pet and a wild animal can be a dangerous combination—especially when rabies is a possibility.

This World Rabies Day, make sure your pet’s rabies vaccination is current. In Florida, rabies vaccination is required by law for dogs, cats, and ferrets 4 months of age and older. Taking precautions to limit interactions with wildlife can further reduce the risk of exposure.

If your pet is bitten, scratched, attacked, or has direct contact with a bat, raccoon, fox, or other wild mammal, don’t wait for symptoms to appear. Avoid handling the wild animal yourself and contact a veterinarian promptly for guidance.

When an unexpected wildlife encounter happens after hours, our Volusia emergency team is here to help.

Pets don't always cry or limp when something hurts.

Instead, they may hide, pant, avoid being touched, pace, stop eating, or simply seem quieter than normal.

You know your pet best. If something feels different, don't ignore the change.

Cooked chicken bones can splinter into sharp pieces that may injure your pet's mouth, throat, or digestive tract.

If your pet swallowed a cooked bone, monitor them closely and contact your veterinarian for guidance. Don't try to make them vomit unless specifically instructed to do so.

When in doubt, it's always better to ask than to wait.
