Emergency Kit for my dog? (vet, rabies, children, eating)

[Global Friend]

The nearest emergency facility for animals is 40 minutes from me so I want to be prepared for anything. What would you suggest I always have in the house for two 9lb dogs in case of whatever? Thx!

Thanks great list I am going to print this out. I do have just about all of it with the exception of the eyewash.
