The goals of the Pet First Aid class are to teach participants how to be prepared for emergencies that involve a cat or a dog. Participants also learn how to protect themselves, and their pets from further harm, injury or suffering during emergencies by teaching prompt, effective first aid actions and care.
First aid for cats and dogs is the immediate and temporary care given to an injured animal until it can be taken to a professional veterinarian for medical care and attention. From basic pet owner responsibilities, like spaying, neutering and administering medications to managing breathing or cardiac emergencies and preparing for disasters, the Dog First Aid and Cat First Aid guidebooks offer information and advice pet owners can trust. Both feature an easy-to-use first aid reference guide covering nearly 70 topics and an accompanying DVD that shows how to manage urgent care situations, including car accidents; wounds; electrical shock; and eye, foot and ear injuries.
A course completion certification is issued at the end of the class
