I spent yesterday hanging out with this American Red Cross stuffed dog, learning how to do CPR and first aid for dogs and cats. We learned about how to respond immediately in any emergency to increase the chance of getting the dog to a veterinary hospital for professional treatment. We also got a good dose of how to prevent any of these emergencies from happening in the first place. Now, I’m officially Red Cross certified, and I do a pretty good paw wrap, if I do say so myself!
