Your pets, just like children are at greater risk of death or injury from preventable accidents than any other reason. Taking the correct and proper actions can significantly increase the chances of survival and reduce the extent of injury to your pet, before transporting them to your veterinarian. Chesapeake AED Services is now offering Pet Tech’s pet first aid and care classes for pet owners: PetSaver™. An important part of being a caring, conscientious, responsible and loving pet owner is knowing the life saving skills of pet CPR , first aid and care.
Jane Rainier successfully completed the Pet Tech Insturctor Trainng Program and is qualified to teach the Pet Tech family of programs. The four hour PetSaver class includes the skills and information necessary to prepare the pet owner in the unfortunate event of a medical emergency involving their pet. Some of the topics highlighted in the class include: CPR, Rescue Breathing, Shock Management, Bleeding Protocols, Injury and Wellness Assessments, Heat Injuries, Cold Injuries and dental and senior “pet-izen” care.
“Doggie” or “Kitty” breath is not normal and is usually a sign of poor oral hygiene that should be addressed promptly. Dental Care For Your Pets teaches pet owners the many aspects of caring for their pet’s teeth. Pet owners will learn how to properly brush their pet’s teeth, choose safe toys and health food snacks and work with their veterinarian to assure good dental health. Students are also taught a snout to tail assessment, with the intent and purpose of looking for any injuries the pet does not present to you or for wellness to create a base-line of your pet’s health.
On the average, pets seven years of age and older are considered senior “pet-izens” and are at risk for age-related health problems. In Pet Tech’s PetSaver class, pet owners will learn the risk factors associated with older pets, proper excerise plans, diet and nutritional choices, and the things they should be doing for senior “pet-izens” and the things they should not be doing for pets in their golden years.
