The goals of the Dog First Aid presentation are to teach participants how to be prepared for emergencies that involve a dog and how to protect themselves and the animal from further harm, injury or suffering during emergencies by teaching prompt, effective first aid actions and care. First aid for dogs is the immediate and temporary care given to an injured animal until it can be taken to a professional veterinarian for medical care and attention. Dog “first aid” should not be confused with “pet care.” Many excellent books are on the market that give the pet owner advice on how to choose, feed and otherwise take good day-to-day care of a dog.
