Coat care on the road
New places show in the coat first. Brush every couple of days to stop mats forming -- and to spot ticks after grassy walks. Clicking nails on hard floors means a trim is overdue; most groomers and many pet stores do walk-ins. Check ears after swimming; trapped moisture breeds infections fast.
Finding a vet away from home
For longer stays, register with a local clinic before you need one. A routine appointment early on puts your dog's baseline on their system. Ask how out-of-hours emergencies work -- shared rotas are common -- and save that number immediately. Clinics advertising fear-free or low-stress handling are a good bet for nervous dogs.
What to have on hand
- Vaccination records (photo on your phone counts in most places).
- Any daily medication, plus two extra days' worth.
- The number of your home vet, in case the local clinic wants history.
- Poison-control number for the country you are in.
