🐾 Big News: I’m Now a Certified Dog First Aider! 🐾
I spent my Sunday learning some seriously important skills at a Dog First Aid course, and I’m now officially certified! 🎓🐶
We covered everything you can do to help a dog in an emergency before professional care kicks in:
💡 Recognising seizures and shock
💡 Handling bleeding (even internal)
💡 Managing GDV (bloat), burns, and poisoning
💡 Practicing CPR on a dummy dog (a game-changer!)
These skills are vital for every dog owner (and I highly recommend this training to anyone with a dog!), but especially for me as a dog carer. 🐕❤️ I feel much more prepared to handle emergencies. 🐾 Thank you, Dog First Aid - Sussex!
