Dog Ambulance Rides with a Network of Local Vets

In many cities, a network of local vets works together to provide emergency care for dogs in need. These vets are connected through a system that allows them to quickly and efficiently coordinate care for dogs in crisis.

The network of local vets is often made up of a group of dedicated professionals who are passionate about providing the best possible care for dogs. They work together to ensure that every dog receives the attention and care it needs.

For example, in the city of New York, there are over 20 local vets who are part of this network. These vets are available 24/7 to provide emergency care for dogs.

Squad FiftyOne is a medical pet transport service in Ohio that's making a big difference in the lives of pet owners.

Medina wanted to create a service that would provide a safe and comfortable way for pets to get to and from medical appointments.

Squad FiftyOne has three vehicles spread out in the Cleveland area, on standby, waiting for the next emergency call.

They can perform triage, wound care, intubation, and help with respiratory distress.

Everyone on the staff of Squad FiftyOne is certified in pet CPR and first aid, which gives pet owners peace of mind when they need their help.
