What About After-Hours Emergencies?
Oh No! It’s midnight and your dog is sick! What do you do? Don’t panic because the Lafayette area has excellent emergency veterinary care. We wag our tails for Lafayette Animal Emergency Clinic. If fact, we forward all calls to this clinic after normal business hours. We will receive a full report the morning after your visit. Some of our awesome veterinary technicians moonlight with Lafayette Animal Emergency Clinic, so don’t be surprised if you see them during your visit.
