Ever see a frightened stray dog dodging traffic? A cat stuck in a vending machine? Or maybe you suspect a case of animal cruelty nearby? These are the kinds of situations for our Emergency Animal Medical Technicians™ (EAMTs™).

 

Our dedicated EAMTs™ are trained to handle all aspects of providing animal rescue and triaging animal victims, regardless of the nature of their injuries. They respond to dozens of calls each day and about 18,000 calls annually. They provide life-saving care on the scene and then transport the distressed animals to our Second Chance Animal Hospital for full veterinary care.

 

As the only program of its kind in the state of Arizona, we maintain the only radio-equipped emergency ambulance fleet just for sick and injured stray animals in the Valley. And our EAMT™ program is endorsed by the Phoenix Police Department, the Phoenix Fire Department, the Office of the State Fire Marshal, the Arizona Veterinary Medical Association and VTEC, the state’s leading provider of veterinary technician education courses.
