Welcome

South Metro Animal Emergency Care has removed a wide variety of 'foreign objects' from cats and dogs, including corn cobs, socks, coins, toys, glass, towels and washcloths, carpet fibers, drapery cords, undigested bones, and more. 

The owners of this dog feared he had swallowed a AA battery. Radiographs confirmed their suspicions.

This dog suffered a gunshot wound, which fractured its femur.

This dog was also shot - but in the chest - causing air and fluid to surround and compress its heart and lungs.

 

 

Although not foreign objects, air or fluid in the abdominal cavity can also be serious. This dog is suffering from Gastric Dilatation-Volvulus - commonly called "bloat."
