An emergency can differ in the eyes of many people. If you as a pet owner are concerned, then we are concerned and will schedule an appointment. However, if you need to bring your pet in for an emergency, please call ahead and let us know so we may be prepared to assist you and provide the best treatment in a timely fashion. 

In the event of an emergency, please remember to stay calm, as our pets will pick up on our emotions and react accordingly. Also; the more information you can provide us with concerning the incident, the better we can treat your pet quickly and accurately.
Here at Logue's TLC Pet Hospital, we strive to make you and your pets visit with us as efficient and stress free as possible. However, we also understand that our animal friends will get sick and/or injured at all times of the day and night and may need immediate care. We try our best to not let this effect our regular scheduled appointments during the day, but would appreciate your compassion and understanding when/if we need to attend to an emergency ahead of your scheduled appointment. We will keep you informed of any/all delays in your appointment if needed.
If you have an emergency during office hours, please call our office number at 765-973-8703 to inform us and schedule an emergency appointment.
Dr. Logue is not available for emergencies after our regular office hours. If your pet has an emergency at a time when Dr. Logue is unavailable, we have provided a few resources below to help out.
