This is a 4-hour course that teaches DOG AND CAT CPR and First Aid (how to properly wrap a cut or gash), about Stings, Emergency Procedures.
Your pet has an emergency. How you react can make the difference between his life or death.
The most dramatic realization will come when something many know but none would have thought of in an emergency: the first reaction of a dog being rescued is often to bite his rescuer, even if it is his own pet parent. So, before we learn how to make things better, we learned how to prevent them from getting worse.
How many times does a NYC dog pick something up from the street? You want to grab it from him and in keeping it from you he starts to choke. Or, as actually happened to one one of our students, pup is excited - in her case it was a doggie birthday party - and starts to choke?
Or the pup who laps up anti-freeze at 10 o'clock at night?
4% of our canine population suffer seizures. Do you know what to do?
If your pet is bleeding profusely or has a broken bone, those first minutes after injury are critical. How do you help best and fastest?
