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.

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.
