We want you to feel confident to handle a medical emergency for your special dog and cat family members! Don't feel helpless! Empower yourself and be your pet's hero! Pet CPR & First Aid of the Lehigh Valley is sponsored by Pawsitive Purfection Pet Sitting & Services, LLC who offers Pet CPR & First Aid classes via Pet Tech. The training is taught by Owner and Certified Pet Tech Instructor #2061, R

ochelle Beckel. We understand that training is needed to be your pet's first responder in an emergency. We know that this does not replace a vet visit but it provides you with the resources needed to remain calmer in the situation. Pet First Aid is the immediate care given to a pet who is injured or ill. Knowing the skills can mean the difference between life and death for your pet. This class is perfect for pet parents and professionals. According to the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA) 1 out of 4 pets would survive if just one pet first aid technique was applied prior to getting emergency veterinary care! Our Pet Tech CPR/First Aid class is a four hour class that utilizes lecture, demonstration, and hands on skills practice. The class includes a handbook and a certificate upon completion. We will prepare you to handle:
*Priorities of Emergency Care
*Muzzling
*Primary Pet Assessment
*Pet CPR and Rescue Breathing
*Choking Management
*Bleeding Protocols and Bandaging
*Heat and Cold Injuries
*"Snout-to-Tail" Injury and Wellness Assessment
*How to put together your own Pet First Aid Kit

We can't wait to share these important skills with you!

🎃 Fall is in the air, and that means Halloween is just around the corner! Now is a great time to review some safety tips for your pets!⁣
⁣
⁣⁣As much as we love Halloween, it brings certain risks to our favorite cats and dogs. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
Some tips to remember:⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
👻 Costumes - Though it’s fun to dress our pets up in costumes, make sure your pet is comfortable in the costume before Halloween. Ensure there are no choking or chewing hazards on the costume your pet may ingest and that their hearing or vision is not inhibited by the costume. ⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
🍭 Candy - Yum! Just make sure your pet has no access to the candy and treats, especially if they include xylitol, chocolate, nuts, or raisins, which are very toxic to animals.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
🎃 Decorations - Festive decorations like pumpkins, gourds, fake spider webs, burning candles, glow sticks, and loud scary noise makers can also tempt or scare your pet. Always keep an eye on them! ⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
🍬 Candy Bags and Treat Bags - To prevent pet suffocation, keep all candy bags and food bags safely out of reach of your pets. Cut them up and safely discard them. Pets can suffocate within minutes once they put their head in a bag. Make sure your children are aware of these dangers, too, and that their Halloween loot is safely stored away from your furry family members. ⁣⁣⁣

We have had a few people reach out about concerns about traveling tomorrow during the hours of the solar eclipse.

Monday’s event is expected to last from 2:08pm to 4:35pm, with maximum viewing time around 3:24pm.

There's really no reason to be concerned about harming your pets eyes. Dogs and cats don't normally look up into the sun, so you don't need to get any special eye protection for your pets. We do recommend to keep your pet inside in case there is a firework celebration of the eclipse which may spark anxiety in a pet. Otherwise enjoy this very exciting and educational event!

The loss of this beautiful French Bulldog, Nala, to suffocation in a chip bag last week has left this distraught owner devastated. Korey Renee writes, "my beautiful girl. we lost her tragically the day before last. she got into a chip bag i left on the table while we were at work. i always leave my chips out. i never thought to pick them up. i never did before. i forgot to get it.. she got stuck.. i found her already gone when i got home. the guilt i carry and the weight of all of this is so so painful. i am devastated. this girl was my shadow through life and has gotten me through some of the hardest times. she’d throw herself in front of me to protect me if she thought i was in danger. i only wish i could’ve done the same. i’m so heartbroken. i don’t know how to live through this and cope with the loss of her. her toys, her bed, her harness hanging by the door. i can’t go for a walk as much as i want sunshine because she won’t be with me and i know she would’ve wanted to come. i can’t go to work because maybe if i had just stayed home that day. i can’t leave because my anxiety of something bad happening at home consumes me. every time i walk thru the door i replay the devastating evening over and over again and again. waking up is hard because she’s not here. though i still hear her crying to go out. her bed is laying over top of where i found her because it helps me see her sleeping peacefully instead of gone the way she was. my heart aches. please tell me this gets better. please tell me anything that can help me. she would be 4 in a month.. and she gave me the best few years she could’ve ever given anybody.
EDIT: the bag she got into was sealed with a chip clip. it still didn’t matter.."

Too many of us know the pain and heartache of Korey Renee from losing a beloved pet so suddenly to suffocation. Pet suffocation always catches us off guard. Please share in memory of Nala so we can prevent pet suffocation and more heartache. Thank you.
