Pet First Aid Class - DOGMA Dog Care; Smyrna, GA 6/28 11am-3pm

Why Should You Take A Pet First Aid Course?

There is no such thing as K-911. It is estimated that 60% of animal hospital visits are emergency in nature. Statistics show that preventable accidents are the leading cause of death among non-senior pets. 1 in 4 pets could be saved if just 1 first aid technique was applied prior to arriving at the vet. Knowing the skills and techniques of Pet First Aid can mean the difference between: Life and death, Temporary and permanent disability, Expensive veterinary bills and reasonable home care, Rapid recovery and long recuperation.
