In Case of an Emergency: don't panic! Try to assess your pet's pulse, respiration rate, temperature and level of discomfort. Are the gums pink? Will he/she eat a treat (the cookie test!)? Walking? Wagging? Able to rest comfortably? If your pet is distressed, you may need to find help.

Unfortunately, there are no dedicated emergency veterinary services in Grand County. If your pet is distressed, you may need to head towards Denver.
