Emergency Care

Tranquille Road Animal Hospital is equipped to handle emergencies during our regular hours. We understand that it is difficult to predict when your loyal companion will need urgent care, but you can count on us any day of the week to give them the care they need. When an emergency case comes in, we try to attend to the sickest patient first and work hard to get back to the patients for routine visits. We encourage our clients to call us before coming in with an emergency, as this allows us to provide instructions and prepare for the patient's arrival. If your pet is having an emergency, please call us at 250-376-6797.
