One should always think of one’s dog in case of disasters. What if an accident closes the roads and you cannot get to your dog? This is why you should plan ahead of time.
You should arrange for a trusted neighbor who is frequently at home to take care of evacuating your dog in case of an emergency. Another good idea is to keep a three-day supply of your dog’s food, medicine, veterinary records and leash ready in a pet carrier.
It is also crucial, in cases of severe weather alert, to make sure that a friend’s name and number is also available. This can be ensured by putting a piece of duct tape on the dog’s collar with the extra information.
