The Certified Pet First Aid and CPR course was originally developed by Nurse Ethne Dickinson of Oakland Educational Services Ltd. and her team of Veterinary professionals in 1993 and has since been taken over by Walks n Wags Pet care.
It is the most comprehensive course of it's kind and is internationally recognized. We cover an immense amount of information on not only First Aid and CPR in dogs and cats, but also preventative medicine and detection of early signs of illness and disease.
One of the benefits of our program that makes us unique is that you are welcome to bring a friendly dog along with you to get a hands on approach to actually applying First Aid for your pets.
