Emergency Pet First Aid
By definition, pet emergencies are critical health crises which require immediate medical intervention. Creating an emergency first aid kit is recommended for all pet parents and may buy your pet critical time until veterinary care can be sought through a pet hospital. Many of the supplies you will be using to create your pet first aid kit will also be handy in case of human first aid needs. A first aid kit for dogs and people is a vital component in an emergency disaster preparedness plan as well.
What Should Your Emergency First Aid Kit Contain?
You can purchase pet first aid kits or make your own, but I'm not going to go into detail here about what should or shouldn't be in your Pet First Aid kit.
There are agencies out there who offer Pet First Aid training. Take the class and educate yourself on what to do in the event something happens to Fido or Fluffy.
Below are some links for Pet First Aid classes in Arizona. Or contact your Veterinarian about possible local training available.
