Lafayette Animal Emergency Clinic

Unbelievable staff and service!! We arrived on Saturday night with our 16 year old, ten pound terrier, Jax, who had been mauled in a dog fight by a dog five times his size. Jax was in extreme pain with open puncture wounds on his chest, laceration of his left leg, and a broken orbital bone of his right eye. The staff quickly stabilized him and by late on Saturday night Dr. Denise IsRalson had taken Jax into surgery to X-ray his body for damage and repair his injuries. Throughout the night we called to check on his condition. The doctor spoke to us each time, reassuring us that Jax was peaceful and alert after the procedures. We expected to pick him up on Sunday morning but when we called to confirm, Dr. Denise told us that she had observed an apparent 'air pocket' in Jax's chest that

COME HERE FIRST! This place is heaven-sent! My almost 12-year-old mini schnauzer was attacked by a pit bull, and after going to a different ER vet on Johnston where the emergency was not prioritized, I called Lafayette Animal Emergency Clinic. They immediately told me they take animal attacks seriously, so I rushed over. The moment I walked in, I was greeted by caring staff who quickly took my dog to the back for treatment. They were compassionate and professional, kept us informed every step of the way, and most importantly, had my dog sedated, shaved, cleaned, and stapled up in no time. I will always come back here and 100% recommend others to COME HERE FIRST! Thank you to this caring team for bringing care and comfort in our time of need.

They took such amazing care of my Pasta. My pug got into a pack of gum ( which contained xylitol). I know as dog parents we are always worried about chocolate being deadly, that we sometimes forget about the others. Xylitol is highly toxic to dogs and its found in so many household items other than just food items. After realizing she ingested the gum, I called right away and they had me come right in. The second I walked in the door they took her straight to the back to start treating her. If it wasn't for them acting so swiftly I dont think we would have the outcome we did. Thank you to the whole staff for saving my Pasta.

Dr. Moreau and staff were fantastic with our orange cat Jack on Feb 22/23 2026 when he was in pain with his stomach and bowels and hind part. He made an incredible recovery. We were so fortunate they were there for us! Thanks to all of them from Linda and Mike Bigler!! They are a blessing!

I drove 45 miles to the only emergency vet that I could find. Our dog was in complete distress. They did a great job at getting her out of my car as she was German Shepard and pretty heavy, they brought a stretcher for her. I paid over $1000 for an overnight visit where our dog was on oxygen all night long. The thing that turned me off about this clinic was that they told me first hand, you have to be here by 7:30 to get your dog because we close. I get it, they can't keep her long term but I feel like they were ready to go and just put in the car at 7:30 am and we took her to the vet and she had to be put down. Our ruby was an amazing dog and not once did they even call to check on her after I feel they "shoed" us off because they were closing at 7:30. No compassion. The Dr. con
