    I'm sure if your pet needed emergency vet care while out on the road, google the area your in of a vet and I'm sure they would be more than accommodating

    I like the Banfield Pet Hospitals that are in most of the PetSmart stores. Those PetSmarts are all over the place and usually in mall types parking lots that are semi truck friendly--at least long enough to sneak in and drop the dog off then come back later to pick up. They call and email when shots are due and have montly payment plans.
     
    NavigatorWife and icsheeple Thank this.

    Once had a feeder mouse get loose and run under the big TV cabinet. I got the python out and let him slither under there til I heard a little squeak then lifted the cabinet up onto a brick and fished the snake back out and put him away in his aquarium.

    You do know that the dog must be licensed in each state you are in ?!

    We use Banfield for emergencies and our regular vet at home for shots and well doggy check ups.

    If you need to license them in every state, no one's ever dinged me for it. They do check that they have their shots and are licensed at home though.

    No, I never heard about licensing the dog in every state either. Always kept a record of her shots on hand but no one ever asked to see it. Even took her into Canada several times, the most they would do is frisk Abby.
