In this outdoor course K9 First-aid and CPR attendees will learn all aspects of K9 emergency care, with lectures, demonstrations and hands on skills practice. This class is a must for any dog owner! Course is 6 hours in length and is taught by Paramedics.
Our team of Paramedics and Dr. Lisa Booth DVM have developed this course to give students confidence. Confidence that no matter what the situation involving their dog, they will be able to provide care that will help for the best possible outcome. That alone can be priceless. Each student will receive a K9 First-aid and CPR wallet certification as part of the class.The class content covers over 20 First Aid items including: first aid kits, torn pads, dog fights, seizures, broken bones, electrical injuries, muzzling, and bleeding control and appropriate restraining of an injured animal. There is special attention to choking, bloat, and poisons. There are several hands on type skills and the relaxed open format is very conducive for learning.
In class we use high quality K9 CPR manikins where people actually preform “mouth to snout” breathing and compressions.
