After-Hours, Weekend, Holiday

After-hours and weekend emergency service is only provided for established horse and livestock clients. Please call the office and listen to the recording for instructions. The small animal (dogs/cats) service is not staffed after hours.  Please click here for local small animal emergency clinics.

  • We do not accept new patients on an emergency basis outside of business hours.
  • Emergency travel and service fees are higher than routine visits – please ask for an estimate as payment is required at service. Cash, check, credit card, and care credit are accepted.
  • Smaller livestock – sheep, goats, pet pigs – will only be seen at the clinic after-hours.
  • Equine and cattle may be hauled to our clinic to save the higher travel expense.

There is one large animal veterinarian on call after-hours during the week, on weekends, and holidays.  Our practice shares emergency duty with the providers at Henry River Mobile Veterinary service in Hickory, NC.
