What is Dog First Aid ?

Dog emergency care and Dog First aid involves removing the sick dog or accident dog from the source of harm, preventing the worsening of the condition, restoring vital bodily functions, alleviating pain and distress, and helping recovery to begin.

“Over-enthusiastic first aid can do more harm than good. Limit yourself to determining the seriousness of the dog's condition, providing essential treatment, and then getting IMMEDIATE professional help.”
