Emergency Equine Vet in Maple Plain MN

Emergency care is provided to established clients and by referral.  Please call 612-750-8245 in the event of an emergency.

 

Examples of emergencies may include lacerations; puncture wounds; colic (abdominal discomfort; lying down; kicking at belly); inability to rise; anything that causes a reduction in appetite; fever (>100.9 F); ocular discomfort, swelling, or discoloration; leg swelling; sudden or severe lameness; and difficulty foaling.  If a foal is less energetic, is eating less well, seems awake less often, or is having any abnormal conditions, it should be evaluated by a veterinarian as soon as possible; foals are much more fragile than adults and can become sick within hours.
