<h2>Essential Items for Your Dog's Comfort</h2>
<p>When preparing for your dog's stay at our pet ranch, ensuring their comfort is key. Start with their favorite <b>bed or blanket</b>.

<p>Don't forget to bring along any <strong>specialized feeding bowls</strong> your pet may need. Some dogs have dietary requirements that necessitate specific types of bowls, such as slow feeders. Including these ensures that your dog's meal times are as comfortable and stress-free as possible.</p>

<h2>Food and Treats</h2>
<p>It's important to maintain your dog's regular diet during their stay. Pack enough of their <b>usual food</b> to last the entire duration. Include instructions on feeding times and portion sizes to help us provide the best care. Bringing some of their favorite treats can also be a great way to reward good behavior and keep them content.</p>

<p>If your dog is on a <strong>special diet</strong>, make sure to label all food containers clearly and provide detailed instructions. This is crucial for maintaining your pet's health and ensuring they have a smooth and enjoyable stay with us.</p>

<h2>Health and Safety Essentials</h2>
<p>Your dog's health and safety are our top priorities. Please bring any <b>medications</b> they may be taking, along with clear dosage instructions.

<p>A collar with an ID tag is essential for safety. Ensure it has your current contact information, so we can reach you if necessary. Additionally, if your dog uses a <b>safety harness</b> or special leash, include those in your packing list.</p>

<h2>Personal Comfort Items</h2>
<p>For dogs that wear clothing, pack their <b>favorite outfits</b>, especially if they're prone to feeling cold or have skin sensitivities. This can help them feel more at home and comfortable during their stay.</p>
