Depending on where you live in the United States, your veterinarian may or may not have 24/7 availability to you, so before that emergency happens, it's always important to know whether or not your veterinarian is going to be there in the middle of the night to see your dog and if they're not, where they recommend you to go. Keep those numbers next to your phone, as well as numbers for the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center, too. They're good numbers to have right on hand.
