Choosing a vet in a new town

If you are staying a while, a local vet relationship is worth building before anything goes wrong. Book a routine visit early -- a checkup or a vaccine booster -- so the clinic has your dog's baseline on file. Ask about their emergency arrangements: many practices share an out-of-hours rota, and you want that number saved, not searched for at midnight. Fear-free or low-stress handling certifications are a good sign for anxious dogs.
