Try to stock the prescribed foods and medications of your dog so you can have enough stocked to last for up to two months approximately. Along with this, keep the other items liked by your dog along.

As you know that it’s transferring from thing to thing so it’s better to let your any other family member, friend, or neighbor to ask for the short-term care of your dog.
