Animal Emergency Care Centers

Preventive Care

Dental Care
Vaccination
Viral and bacterial infections will cause vomiting and diarrhea. Dogs that have not had the essential core vaccinations are vulnerable to parvovirus and canine distemper, while cats run the risk of contracting feline distemper and FIV. Coronavirus causes diarrhea and possibly vomiting in both.
Nutritional Counseling
Comprehensive Examination
We do not routinely refill prescriptions, as we are not a retail pharmacy. Under urgent circumstances, the only medication we will refill is an anticonvulsant. You will need to come in with your pet for a physical exam prior to refilling so we can document a doctor, client, or patient relationship, which is required by pharmacy law and is good medical practice. The exam fee will be discounted in this situation only.

Illness Treatment

Parasites Treatment and Control
As a pet owner, it’s inevitable that you will have to clean up some type of mess. In fact, cats routinely vomit hair balls digested as part of the grooming process. Not only is it scary to watch them have a serious case of vomiting or diarrhea, but it can also be dangerous for your pet. That’s why it’s reassuring to know your pet can receive proper treatment at Animal ER Care in Colorado Springs, Colorado, for internal parasites, digestive disorders, and more. Our reliable team of professionals also treats exotic animals.
Behavioral Disorder Treatment
Pain Management
Vomiting Treatment
Diarrhea Treatment
For excessive diarrhea, withhold food but not water for 12 to 24 hours. Your pet may appear to be straining. This could be from constipation or soreness from the diarrhea. Only a vet can diagnose the cause and what will help. Administering home remedies without knowing the cause will only make things worse.
Skin Condition and Allergy Treatment
In order to offer emergency services on a regular basis, we have a team of qualified veterinarians available; our veterinary technicians and other staff members are also here to assist our doctors in providing outstanding care for you and your pet. Whether you have a pet who is in shock or a pet with a fracture, our team of veterinary professionals provides prompt care. We handle over 10,000 emergency cases each year and are fully prepared to help your pets when needed. Some of the conditions that our emergency veterinarian treats include trauma, shock, seizures, bleeding, allergic reactions and fractures or dislocations. We also have the equipment and experience needed to treat fainting, eye injuries, snake bites, poison, hypothermia, and respiratory distress.

Infection Treatment

Parvovirus Infection Treatment
Bacterial and Viral Infection Treatment

Chronic Condition Treatment

Heart Disease Treatment
Relatively uncommon in small animals, pericardial effusion is a life-threatening condition commonly seen in dogs, especially large and giant breeds, and cats. This pericardial disease is characterized by an abnormal accumulation of fluid in the pericardial sac and is caused by congestive heart failure. If your pet is in a state of emergency and exhibiting the signs of this grave condition, let Animal ER Care in Colorado Springs, Colorado, provide the necessary emergency care to save their life.

Seizure Treatment
Wound and Fracture Care
You are likely to notice your pet has occasional cuts, lacerations, and wounds, especially if there are multiple pets in your home. Although bites are common, serious concerns still exist about the possible risks and problems that can arise. Animal ER Care in Colorado Springs addresses these concerns with essential wound care for animal bites your pet has suffered.
Poisoning Treatment
The accidental poisoning of your dog or cat is the ultimate nightmare for any pet owner. The reality is that household pets live in close proximity to an astonishing amount of poisonous substances. It’s all too common and easy for your pet to ingest the wrong thing. Animal ER Care in Colorado Springs, Colorado, provides fast, responsive treatment of toxin, chemical, and food poisoning to save your pet’s life.

Veterinary Surgery
Dr. Sides is originally from North Carolina and received her undergraduate degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. She then moved to Gainesville, FL and graduated with honors from the University of Florida with her Doctorate in Veterinary Medicine (DVM) in 2002. An internship in small animal medicine in surgery at Veterinary Specialists of Northern Colorado brought her to Ft Collins in 2002 after graduation from vet school. She moved to Colorado Springs in 2003 and has been a part of the team at Animal Emergency Care Centers ever since. She is especially interested in soft tissue surgery and critical care medicine.

Laboratory Services
You know your pet the best and can identify if they are in distress or their behavior has changed. If you are unsure what the problem is, come to us. We provide full diagnostic services, including blood work, radiographs, and ultrasounds.

General Pet Care

Boarding
Outside of work she can be found hiking in the mountains, stand-up paddleboarding with her dog Mercy, agility training with her dog Ollie, running, snowboarding, visiting a local microbrewery, or traveling abroad to new destinations. Mercy is a certified therapy dog with the Go Team Colorado, so Heather spends countless volunteer hours driving Mercy to local hospitals, colleges, high schools, libraries, and other miscellaneous venues for visits. She is the co-owner of Animal Emergency Medical Training, which provides small animal first aid and CPR training to firefighters, first responders, police K9 units, search and rescue teams, and dog boarding facilities.
