Because our pets depend on us to keep them healthy and safe, as a valued member of the family, it is important that we learn how to give them the best care possible. Dog First Aid is a comprehensive class with instructions on how to care for virtually every aspect of a dog’s health.  It  gives directions on treatment of everything from routine cuts and scrapes to rescue steps you should take if your dog is choking or has a cardiac emergency.  Dog First Aid also demonstrates how simple it is to include your pet in the family’s emergency preparedness plan.

The Red Cross assembled a skilled team of animal, emergency and safety professionals to develop a guide which covers many aspects of a pets’ physical and mental well-being. Written under the guidance of Emergency and Critical Care veterinarian Deborah C. Mandell, VMD, and Red Cross health, safety and emergency preparedness experts, Dog First Aid has the most up-to-date and reliable information available to keep your dog healthier and better protected.

“Dogs want to be at their best for us and are notorious for hiding illness until their condition is very advanced. But if you learn how to spot subtle changes in your dog’s health early, your veterinarian will have a better chance of treating the problem,“ said Mandell.

Everyone should prepare their home for accidents and disasters by stocking first aid and emergency kits. With the Dog First Aid Training you can follow step-by-step instructions on how to build pet first aid and emergency preparedness kits design specifically to meet your dog’s needs.
