The finer details
It is impossible to predict when you may be presented with an emergency situation either with your own, or with someone else’s dog. By having basic canine first aid skills, you will be able to provide a dog with vital care needed in the first 10 to 15 minutes of an injury or medical emergency.
This in turn, means very often a dog can be presented at a veterinary practice in a more stable condition allowing for a much more positive outcome.
