Please let us know if your pet has received emergency service as soon as possible.
Do not wait till we are open to leave us a message on our phone line (425) 557-0752.
This is particularly important for pets that have been hospitalized.
The emergency service may not notify us in a timely manner, so we rely on you.
We care and want to be sure to follow-up on any care your pet may need.
If you need to contact a poison control center, expect to pay a relatively small fee.
I state this is relatively small given my experience. Take the case number and call us with that information also.
The Washington Poison Center is a great service available 24 hours a day.
They can be reached at:
1 (800) 222-1222

Emergency Phone: (800) 732-6985 (WA only);
or
(206) 526-2121
TDD/TTY: (206) 517-2394 (TDD);
