Pet First Aid

Have you ever been in a predicament where your pet hurt himself and you didn’t know what to do? Scary, isn’t it!  If it hasn’t happened yet, hopefully it never will but will you be prepared if it does? What happens if you can’t rush to the nearest vet?  Jack and I are out and about in some very obscure places hiking, kayaking, camping and swimming. We are also surrounded by many dogs for most of the week. Therefore, we are working with Arden Moore of Four Legged Life to host a Pet First Aid and CPR class. We have seen Arden in action helping our dogs in many instances and she knows her stuff.  You don’t ALWAYS need a vet if you know what to do yourself and know what to look for.

The all-inclusive PetSaver course is a hands-on program designed to give you the necessary skills to provide not only emergency care to your dog or cat but also money-saving ways to keep your pets healthy and safe.  You will learn pet first aid, CPR, restraining and muzzling, choking management, fractures/bleeding protocols, care for heatstroke, frostbite, poisoning, seizures and shock. You will learn how to perform a snout-to-tail wellness and trauma assessment plus receive vital tips in preparing a pet first aid kit, dental care, nutrition, behavior and caring for senior pets.   Upon completion, you will receive:

• PetSaver handbook
• PetSaver Certificate
• Knowing Your Healthy Pet booklet
• Wallet Emergency Card

Join us at the Educated Pet on June 25th at 11 a.m. for this course that is a MUST for all pet owners.  This course is for the 2-leggers so please leave your 4-leggers at home.
