What should I do before I get to the clinic?

• Press a clean towel or gauze on a bleeding wound and hold it

• Keep your pet calm and still, and carry a small pet if you can

• Muzzle gently with a soft leash or cloth if your pet may bite from pain (not if it is vomiting or struggling to breathe)

• Don't put creams, peroxide or alcohol in a deep wound

• Bring a list of medicines, and note the time the injury happened

Even a loving pet can snap when it hurts. Fear Free handling at the clinic keeps exams calm and safe.

Bite wounds look small but go deep

A bite can leave two small holes on the skin while the tissue below is torn and full of bacteria. These wounds often turn into abscesses a few days later. Have any bite checked, even if it looks minor. Also make sure your pet's rabies vaccine is current, and tell the team if the other animal was a stray or wildlife.

Alligators and pets near water

Missouri City Animal Services asks pet parents to keep dogs on a leash and under control near water where an alligator has been seen. Near a sighting, keep pets in a fenced yard or inside for a few days. Alligators move around more in spring and summer to breed and find new places to live.

Wound care pricing

A same-day injury visit starts with a sick or urgent exam, which starts at $135 at Petfolk Missouri City. Cleaning, stitches, bandages and medicine are added based on the wound. You'll get an estimate before any test or treatment. The final bill can differ if the plan changes during the visit.

Healing at home

Keep the cone or recovery suit on, even when your pet seems fine. Keep bandages dry, and call if one slips, smells or gets wet. Check the wound each day for swelling, heat or discharge, and give every dose of medicine.
