Be the calm in your pet’s emergency. Learn what to do before you get to the vet.

Why Pet First Aid & CPR Matters

When something scary happens with your pet, every second feels like an hour. Knowing what to do in those first few moments can make all the difference.

In this class, you’ll learn how to:

  • Recognize early signs of illness or distress

  • Respond to choking, bleeding, shock, and poisoning

  • Safely move or transport an injured pet

  • Perform CPR and rescue breathing

  • Create a pet first aid kit that’s actually useful

These skills give you more than knowledge – they give you confidence when your best friend needs you most.
