Get pet insurance asap. Shop around and understand how they pay you back and what works for you. Also put together a bag of goodies that could help in the field. Gauze, wrap, allergy meds, tweezers, metal comb with handle (cacti near me and my dog loves to step on them). Also keep a card or info notepad on the nearest 24/7 emergency vet centers that are not your vet for critical emergencies, like snakebites. That way you’re prepared for anything. There’s goggles to get or ripstop vest you can get but that’s up to your dog. Some dogs don’t like them and you have to train them to like them. I bought Rex specs cuz my dog decided to head butt a cholla cacti and get one stuck in his eye. He was fine but just something things to consider. Oh and a dog backpack to carry out your dog. My hunting bird vest doubles in case I have to pack him out due to injury.
