Important Phone Numbers
Besides a first-aid kit, you should have several phone numbers taped to your phone or nearby in case of an emergency. These include your vet's phone number, an emergency veterinary hospital number, an alternate emergency veterinary hospital number, and a local or national poison control number. You should probably have the names and numbers of local animal control and shelters in case your rottie is missing.
