Welcome to K911's Pet Ambulance
K-911 Ambulance was born out of a tragic experience when
Rodney McLean's
dog named Timba became injured while swimming in the St Lawrence River.
He was unable to get any transport to help him from his location. He called a
taxi and when they showed up, they refused him service. It became evident
to him that there was a need for an animal emergency transportation service.
Rodney Mclean & Wayne Smith teamed up that same night and decided
something had to be done and K-911 was created
K-911 's Animal
Ambulances primary aim is help transport their sick or injured pet to and from
their local veterinarian 7 days a week.
Timba’s Mission

Timba:
“We strongly believe that our pets choose us for a reason, and even though
Timba came to us on April 4th and died on April 4th the following year and in
between his injury happened thus the creation of K-911’s Animal Ambulance
was born because of our Timba boy and his legacy he left behind to help out
his fellow furry friends will always be remembered.”
It was the summer of 2007 when I was walking my own dog named Timba
down by the St Laurent River where I played fetch with him. He was a LabGolden retriever mix, 7 years
old and he was a great family dog. This one time
while playing fetch, Timba came out of the water holding his paw up in the air
and still holding on to his toy...
I then noticed his paw and leg were bleeding and saw the cut from his leg to
his paw. I immediately took off my t-shirt and wrapped it around his leg and
paw to try and stop the bleeding. I was concerned seeing that I was about a
kilometer from my home, and I remembered I had my cellphone, so I called a
taxi immediately and then I carried Timba in my arms to Boulevard LaSalle.
When the taxi driver saw the blood through the t-shirt on Timba's leg, he
refused to help us and drove off. I called a family member who came, and we
took him to the emergency veterinary facility where they treated him. He
ended up having 8 stitches.
That night, we sat going over the event that happened earlier that day with
Timba. Frustrated and mad as hell because we could not get any help for our
pet when we needed it, we decided that something had to be done. We then
created the K-911 Animal Ambulance for us to help people in need like we
were.
