Student Testimonials: “Hi Cheryl, I just wanted to thank you for the excellent pet first aid course that I took through your website a year or so ago. Today, I had a life threatening incident with my mini poodle. I literally saved her life. I was extremely panicked but my brain remembered what to do because I had learned how to approach the situation through your pet first aid course. I had to perform the Heimlich maneuver and then help dislodge the item from her mouth where it became stuck and was causing bleeding. My dog was panicked too and was in a state where she was ready to bite… I put Gloves on and used a utensil to dislodge the item after bringing it up with the Heimlich maneuver. She is fine now. I am so grateful for that excellent course! Thank you! (Ramona )”
“I received an interesting call tonight. My friends who live six hours away from me called and asked me about doing First Aid. Their dog was hit by a car, walked home and collapsed. So, over the phone I was able to tell her how to treat for shock and an injured tail while they waited for a Veterinarian to be available.” (Joyce Wampler in Morocco)
