When people think of first aid, they often do not think about their pets. Pets have accidents the same as humans and knowing what to do should the worst happen is a simple thing to learn with basic training. Pet first aid is not aimed to replace veterinary care but it will help you to recognise an emergency, calm your pet and reduce the risks of delayed treatment.
Learning pet first aid is fun and informative and will give you the skills to deal with a pet emergency should it arise.
Nick has worked with animal rescue for many years and has a wealth of real time experience with a large variety of animals. During the course he will give you an insight into this world and practical applications of real First Aid.
Our approved Centre provides a recognised accreditation and is suitable for both Pet Owners and Pet Professionals.
