Start with what you know. We’ll organize the situation, check urgency first, and route you to a useful next step.
Guidance, not diagnosis. This tool helps you organize what you are seeing and decide who to contact. It does not replace veterinary care, poison control, emergency services, a rescue, trainer, or qualified behavior professional.
Severe breathing trouble, collapse, uncontrolled bleeding, repeated seizures, major trauma, suspected poisoning, heatstroke, inability to urinate, a swollen abdomen with repeated dry heaving, or severe distress → seek emergency veterinary care now.
