We know that emergencies don’t always happen during regular business hours. That’s why we’re introducing our new After-Hours Emergency Care service for large animals, ensuring that your large animals and livestock receive the prompt attention they need, whenever they need it.
Please note that our After-Hours Emergency Care service is currently available only to established clients of All Creatures Veterinary Services. If you’re not yet a client and your large animal is experiencing an emergency, we recommend contacting a 24-hour animal hospital or your regular veterinary service provider for assistance.
How to Access Our After-Hours Emergency Services
If your large animal is experiencing a medical emergency outside of our regular business hours, follow these steps:
- Call our main line at (706) 283-2761.
- Listen carefully to the recorded message and follow the prompts to reach our on-call veterinarian.
- Provide detailed information about your animal’s condition and follow the veterinarian’s instructions.
- If necessary, make arrangements to transport your animal to our facility or prepare for our mobile vet unit to arrive at your location.
As a valued client of All Creatures Veterinary Services, you can now rest easy knowing that your horses, cattle, sheep, goats, and other large animals have access to urgent care outside of our standard operating hours. Our dedicated team of experienced veterinarians and support staff is on-call and ready to assist with any emergency situation that may arise.
When to Seek After-Hours Emergency Care for Your Large Animal
Some situations that may require immediate attention include:
- Severe injuries or trauma
- Difficulty breathing or signs of respiratory distress
- Colic or abdominal pain
- Prolonged labor or birthing complications
- Acute lameness or inability to stand
- Signs of neurological disorders or seizures
- Suspected poisoning or toxin exposure

If you’re unsure whether your animal’s condition warrants emergency care, don’t hesitate to call us for guidance.
Remember, this service is for urgent situations only and is not a substitute for regular veterinary check-ups and preventive care. By working together to maintain your animals’ health and addressing emergencies promptly, we can help ensure a long and happy life for your livestock.
