Picture
​​Pet Parents taking their pets in for surgery or any type of illness, injury, routine teeth cleaning or even a spay/neuter, find out up front if your vet has a vet or vet tech on duty overnight after hours. Leaving your pet alone with a vet that leaves them alone at night can have its risks and can be deadly in certain situations. Even when it is routine and everything seems safe and non life threatening, things can and have gone wrong.
Do not leave your pets overnight at your vets if they do not have someone with them 24 hours. A quick visit after hours by a vet tech or similar..does NOT count. IF your vet does not have 24 hour care...around the clock, take your pet home. Clear this up before EVER having surgery done or emergency care.

Picture
​ I know when two of my dogs had emergency surgery done, the on-call after hours vet said I could come get them in the morning. I said no, call me as soon as you are done and I will come get them..and so I did. It was 2am.
Leaving your dog that is sick, injured, recuperating from surgery and that's had medications of any kind, should be monitored 24/7.

And what about that nasty horrible food they feed your pet while there? You know, the one with corn as the main ingredient? That's enough to definitely not leave your pet for any reason. YUK!

If your vet insists on your dog staying overnight, you can refuse. You can pick your pet up at the end of the day and take them home with special care instructions and watch them yourself. If an emergency arises, you can make a decision on what to do. You can call your vet if they handle on call emergencies or take them to an emergency clinic. Either way they have a better chance of survival with you being there instead of your pet being left in a crate all alone without being supervised at all times. If your vet refuses to let you take your pet home, find a new vet. In other words, find a vet that will agree BEFORE you ever take them into that vet for any visits. If your vet will not agree, then find a new vet. It is your pet and your money. It is your choice to make. Not theirs. 
​​If a human goes in for surgery, they get 24 hour care. In fact those nurses just won't leave you alone to sleep. Your doctor won't release you either until you are well enough. ​
But that human can walk out of that hospital at any time. No one is telling them no. No one is stopping them. Someone is with you at all times. So why is there no one taking care of pets after hours?

WHY do vets keep a pet overnight if no one will be there? Its nuts!!!!
Picture
​Your pet is better off at home with you. If anything happens, you can handle the emergency. So prepare ahead of time if possible. Make a plan on what you will do if something goes wrong at home. Be ready to fly out the door if need be. No matter how routine things may be, things can always go wrong. This HAS happened more than once with pets staying overnight at a clinic that had no one present to care for them. There are reported deaths of pets dying for even routine care.
​​What if there was a fire? Or gas leak if the building has gas. So much can go wrong and out of your hands.  
​
Do not board your dog there if no one is there 24/7. If you have to leave your dog behind, find a friend or someone you know and trust that can keep your dog. Or hire a pet sitter. It's best if your pet is not locked up in a cage somewhere alone and probably scared without being able to move around. I don't even recommend a boarding facility. If so, do they have cameras for you to watch 24/7? All boarding facilities should be wired with cameras in all areas. After all, don't daycare's for kids do this? If they don't, don't leave your kids there either.
We trust our vets whole-heartedly and we don't think anything could happen to our pets when in the care of professionals. This couldn't be further from the truth.
Picture
​I cannot stress enough how important it is to educate yourself for your pet. Read books, get in a group to learn more. Be prepared.
​
Keep a first aid kit in your home and be prepared for emergencies as well. Keep emergency phone numbers on your frig. When you pick up your pet from the vet clinic at the end of the day, listen carefully to what your vet tells you for after care. Ask a lot of questions. Make sure you understand everything in case something goes wrong at home. Most of the time things go well but "just in case" be prepared. There is nothing more important than knowledge in saving a life. From knowing CPR, to handling broken limbs or poisoning. 
​​Although we are never prepared for what may go wrong, we can help avoid fatalities when we have the knowledge and say so on what goes on with our pets. Don't be bullied. Stand up for what is right! Don't trust your vet completely. Things can and do go wrong.
 
Speak with your vet that they will at least post a sign for all to see and read stating this clinic does not have on-staff employees after hours. That's the least vet clinics can do and you as a pet parent should not leave your pet otherwise if they do. Know the risks involved. And stand up for your pets rights!

 I am only an everyday person sharing my experiences and knowledge with others. My dogs are all rescues and came with some medical issues. As our dogs age, no matter what we do right, there is always a medical issue that will arise, so being proactive instead of reactive is your best line of defense. You will also have the knowledge to make better decisions and can handle tackling a problem. Learning is our best line of defense. ​

Facebook is removing thousands, maybe millions of accounts if they don't like anything about them now. I had a page for HOPS on Facebook but I lost it when they deleted my account as well. Over 10,000 followers..gone just like that. We are looking for a permanent social media site. We are on Facebook again but it isn't monitored daily. 
Also watch out for a lot of scams going on especially on Facebook, especially so called Drs from Nigeria or India claiming to help you or your pets. A Dr named Dr Gbojie natural cure on FB is a scammer. Things are bad right now so just be aware!
