About Canine First Aid

Did you know that less than 5% of all dog owners know canine CPR, and even less feel confident to perform the abdominal thrust maneuver or external extraction technique on a choking dog, or know the early signs of life-threatening bloat? 

In the Canine Health and CPR – Emergency First Aid course you will learn how to recognize and assess health situations, respond accordingly, and gain the confidence to help your dog in any emergency. 

You can sign up for open group classes or request a private class for your group (4-16 participants). Courses can be hosted at Castlerock Morgans (Belchertown, MA) or at an off-site hosting facility.

    Classes & Pricing

    Canine Health and CPR – Emergency First Aid (1 Day) $159.00

    The most comprehensive course available!  You will learn prevention – like knowing which household plants are toxic to your dog and what people medicines they can NEVER have. We cover basic nutrition, exercise and dental care needs, we teach you about digestive emergencies and how to deal with them. You get to practice making your own Elizabethan collar and emergency muzzle (even the most docile dogs can act aggressively when they’re injured or scared). We teach you how to handle the immediate response incidents, like your dogs heart stops, they have something lodged in their throat and can’t breathe, they’ve gotten into poison, or have had a terrible accident and needs to be stabilized for safe transport to the Vet. You will learn and practice a number of different hands-on scenarios, so when an emergency happens muscle memory kicks in and you’ll be able to help your dog in their moment of need. We do everything with your safety in mind, and you’ll take home a 130 page health and first aid quick reference manual. You earn your paper certificate as well as your wallet CPR & vitals card.
