What People Say About Us

student Testimonials

Thanks to your course, my closing manager, Mariella, noticed one of the dogs that had been boarding with us had some mild signs of bloat. She detected it early enough that there was no damage to the dog’s stomach and the dog is on the road to an excellent recovery following emergency surgery last night.

Your course alone has saved at a minimum of 15 dogs across our locations in Colorado. We can not thank you enough for the training you provide to our staff! This is precisely why I want my team prepared- emergencies happen anytime, anywhere-education and training is power. Thank you for all that you and the team does.

I took your K9 first aid course a couple weeks ago and had to utilize that training yesterday when my wife called me while at work and said my dog Qyber got a hold of a small brownie kit. I came home and gave him 30ml of hydrogen peroxide 3% and successfully induced vomiting 5 mins after.

Just wanted to thank you for your classes. My boxer, Driver was diagnosed with ARVC in March so I took your course again and needed it tonight when he had a syncopal episode on our walk. I stayed calm and immediately did chest compressions and revived him. He is staying overnight at the vet just in case so he can see the cardiologist in the morning.

My dog’s life was saved today because I took your K-9 emergency class. We woke up this morning and my dog, Ely, was showing signs of bloat. I gave him anti-gas pills and we raced to the vet with your book in hand. Had I not taken your class, I would not have known about bloat or how dire the situation was. Thank you for doing what you do! And I hope you are proud to know that you made a difference.

My Ranger is ALIVE today because of warning signs I learned in the class- we ended up at the Emergency Vet for Bloat surgery yesterday.. I was able to spot life threatening symptoms similar to those in a video shown during the class. We quickly rushed to the vet and my fears were confirmed.

Are you a Non-Profit 501(c)3?

We are looking to partner with non-profit agencies and give back! We understand that fundraising has became difficult with the COVID-19 pandemic. Regular challenges include acquiring new donors, diversifying funding sources, donor retention and increasing demand/staff constraints. We have a solution to your aid in your fundraising efforts!

What does our Focused Fundraiser Program include?

K9 Educators will return $20 per student who enrolls into any of our Pet First-aid and CPR courses with your designated promotion code. Funds are distributed electronically to your non-profit on the first day of every month.If only 250 followers were to take any course in Pet First-aid and CPR that would equate to $5,000 as a donation to your non-profit.There is nothing you need to do on your part other than to reach out to your followers and promote the course as a fundraiser. We can create custom 30-60 second videos and flyers for you to promote.


   It’s a WIN….

  • For the non-profit as you receive funds during these trying times.
  • Everything is online and requires no in person events.
  • For the Pet owners as they receive the education to provide care to their pet.
  • For the Pet as they will receive the care they deserve in a time of need.
  • For us as we get to do what we love- Teach!

Advice to you...

I would say to make yourself a better version of you every day. Many dog owners admit they love their dog more than they like people and consider their dog as part of the family. By being prepared, you will be able to provide first aid to the ones you love in their time of need. In my case, you just might be able to recognize when your dog is facing a life-threatening situation and be able to act promptly. When I lost Sampson, I was left with a tremendous amount of guilt. I feel guilty is one of the most helpless feelings a soul can endure. Guilt is not something that is time-stamped and at times, it may be with you for years. We emphasize to students, do not base your success on the outcome, base your success on your effort and put everything you have into what is close to your heart.
