Yes, legally the vet can treat the animal.  But without the consent of the
owner, he cannot require the owner to pay the bill  (i.e. in regards to
theft of services and the penal code...........civilly, the vet can demand
payment and the owner can sue etc, etc. and so on).  There are other
factors too, but that's a basic answer.

I also live in a very dark place and had trouble with holding a flashlight.
 I got a mountaineering/hiking/climbing light.  Like the old miner used to
wear on their heads.  They are compact and easy to use.  Slips over your
head on elastic bands and keeps your hands free.  Scared two of my horses
the first few times I wore it (the third looked at me like I was a dork and
kept eating), but they're used to it now.  Mine cost about $25.00 in the
mountain shop...........then a week later I found one for 10 in a sporting
goods store.
