Vets

No veterinary clinic is mapped in Islamabad yet. Before traveling with a dog, find the nearest 24-hour emergency vet in the closest larger town and save the number.

Boarding & daycare

No boarding kennels are mapped in Islamabad yet. Ask your accommodation host for a local recommendation, and always visit first before leaving your dog.

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.
