Memorial Day gives us a moment to pause and remember those who gave their lives in service to our country.

As many of us spend today with family and friends, we recognize the sacrifice that made those moments possible and remember the families who carry that sacrifice every day.

Our team will be here throughout the holiday caring for pets if emergency care is needed.

From all of us at East Texas Pet Emergency, we wish you a safe Memorial Day.
❤️🤍💙

We’re open and ready when you need us 🐾

If you’ve ever wondered who’s behind the scenes taking care of your pets on their worst days… here’s some of our crew. And let me tell you, this team is the real deal.

Smart, skilled, a little chaotic (in the best way), and they care HARD. Your pets aren’t just patients to us, they’re treated like our own.

East Texas, you’ve got a top-notch ER team in your corner. Always.

Meet Grunt 🐾

This handsome (and VERY happy) boy came to see us this weekend after a run-in with a snake 🐍… and let’s just say, Grunt handled it like a champ!

Snakebites in dogs can escalate quickly and aren’t something to “wait and see” on. Symptoms can include:
• Swelling (often sudden and painful)
• Bruising or bleeding
• Lethargy or weakness
• Changes in breathing or heart rate

Grunt came in with swelling and needed quick intervention. After bloodwork, antivenin, and a plasma transfusion, he responded beautifully and got to head home to his family ❤️

A few quick takeaways for our East Texas crew:
• If you suspect a snakebite, don’t wait, come in immediately
• Try to keep your pet calm and limit movement
• Do NOT try to suck out venom (yes, people still ask 😅)
• Don’t apply a tourniquet

Time matters more than anything with these cases.

Also worth noting… Grunt might officially be the happiest snakebite patient we’ve ever seen. Tail wagging, loving life, zero complaints. 10/10 attitude.

We’re so glad you’re feeling better, buddy 🖤

🚨 Patient Spotlight: Otis Waffles 🚨

Otis Waffles came in tonight after a squeaker toy mysteriously disappeared under very suspicious circumstances.

We asked questions.
He gave us this face. ⬇️

No thoughts.
No remorse.
Just… crimes.

We took X-rays expecting to find the squeaker…
…and this man really said “you’ll never find the body.”

NOTHING.
No evidence.
No witnesses.

At this point we’re not even sure if Otis ate the toy or if he just knows what happened and is choosing silence.

He got some meds and was released back into the community where he will absolutely do this again.

We don’t have proof… but we have strong opinions.

Rachel is usually here because… well… she makes bad decisions.
(We’re talking eats things she absolutely shouldn’t.)

But today?
She showed up to donate blood and help save another pet’s life. 💜

We’re proud of you, Rachel. Even if we don’t trust you unsupervised.

🚨 Well… our phones have decided to take the night off. 🚨

Our phone lines are currently down, but WE ARE STILL OPEN and seeing patients.

If your pet needs emergency care, please come straight to the clinic and our team will get you checked in.

Thank you for understanding!

Not all busy days look the same.

Today may not have looked like one of our “packed parking lot” days, but every patient that came through our doors needed extra time, extra care, and extra attention.

To our incredible clients, thank you.
Thank you for your patience, your kindness, and your understanding. Your grace in the waiting room never goes unnoticed, and it truly allows us to focus on what matters most: providing the best possible care for your pets.

We move as quickly as we can, but never at the expense of patient care, and today was a perfect example of why that balance matters.

We are so grateful for the trust you place in East Texas Pet Emergency Clinic every single day. 🐾💙

Love was in the air…
Phoebe said absolutely not. 💅🐾

Our Valentine’s Day queen came in with an ear injury after rejecting the romantic advances of the neighborhood cat. Boundaries were set. Feelings were hurt. Fur may have flown.

Phoebe is doing great, and still accepting applications for a Valentine who respects personal space.

Pets are wild because they’ll be perfectly fine all day…
then wait until 9:47 PM to do something that immediately stresses everyone out.

Anyway. We’re open.
