🥼What is Vidaah Vet?
💉Vidaah Vet is our afterhours on call vet program!
👩🏻⚕️With Vidaah Vet, you'll be chatting with an actual vet to assist with any medical emergencies! This service is available for DPA Fosters Monday through Friday 7pm-7am, and all day/night Saturday and Sunday.
🛜To get started, go to https://dpa.dog/vidaahvet and create your profile. If you have a medical emergency between Monday through Friday 7pm-7am, and all day/night Saturday and Sunday, you'll log in and select "Start Chat". The Vidaah Vet will provide you with guidance of how to handle the situation. If the vet informs you that immediate emergency care is needed, please call the Medical Emergency line at 214-550-2891 so that the Medical Team can set up the ER visit for you.
💬The DPA Medical Team will receive copies of any conversations so that they can provide additional assistance during the daytime.
📧If you have questions about this new service, please email medical@dallaspetsalive.org
Your main point of contact for your foster will be foster@dallaspetsalive.org. You can reach out to foster@dallaspetsalive.org anytime! Your email will go to our full foster rep team and one of us will get back to you as soon as possible! If you are not already, be sure to join our DPA Foster Facebook Group.
