My Service Dog at the Emergency Vet (and pet insurance explained!)

We didn’t expect our morning hike to end with my service dog at the emergency vet—but accidents happen, even when you’re experienced. In this video, I’m sharing a scary moment with my service dog, Denver, and how I handled it.


More importantly, I break down the step-by-step decisions that helped me stay calm, act quickly, and avoid making a bad situation worse. Whether you have a service dog or a pet, knowing what to do in moments like this can make all the difference.


I also share:


How I assessed the situation in real time

When (and why) I chose the emergency vet over at-home options

How I advocate for my service dog during care

My thoughts on pet insurance (what I use + why)

Even as a professional, things don’t always go perfectly—but having a plan matters.
