I have a very young female pit mix that has recently had pups and was spayed 2 weeks ago. She is estimated to be around 1 year old and weighs about 40-45 lbs. Her belly skin is very stretched and saggy, and her teats are still very enlarged, especially noticeable when she's sitting or laying on her side.

Do you provide emergency mobile veterinary service in Roanoke, Virginia for a 10-year-9-month-old Rottweiler named Nellie who is diabetic, blind, and currently in extreme distress with heavy breathing and inability to walk? She has been lethargic for several days, stopped eating last night, and has no appetite this morning. Is there a service that can check her out and, if necessary, provide end-of-life care to prevent her suffering?
