What will I learn in a pet first aid course?

Our pet first aid courses are designed to educate pet owners and pet pros & make them feel confident acting in case of various medical emergencies. Our information covers adult cats and dogs.

Each topic is discussed in steps:

  1. defining the medical emergency
  2. how to recognize it
  3. how to prevent it (if possible)
  4. how to treat it
  5. what to expect at the vet. Check out each courses syllabus on their respective pages. 

Each course page has a syllabus that you can view to learn which topics it will cover.

Our courses do not cover every possible medical condition. Students should triage their pets based on information provided, their best judgment and common sense and understand that disease physiology is complex. A veterinarian is the ultimate source of information for pet health. 


What animals & age groups do the classes cover?

Our courses cover adult dogs and cats. At this time, we do not offer information about other species or age groups.


What is the difference between the "Pet Professionals" & "Pet Owner" courses?

Our Pet Professionals course has some additional topics that are not relevant to pet owners such as sanitation for large groups of animals, communicating with owners, and managing stress in pet services settings.


Will I be certified in pet first aid & CPR?

Pet owners will receive a certificate of completion. Each level of Pet Professional course require a passing grade of 80% or more to receive certificate. All certificates are good for two years at which point we recommend re-taking the course to stay up-to-date on information and skills.


Can I get CE credits?

CE credit is available only our Pet Professionals Level 1-3 bundle. We offer CE credits for PACCC, CCPDT, NADOI & PPAB. Other programs may be pending. 

Please send us an email to request these credits or inquire about other groups.
