Will you know what to do when your pet needs help?

Your pet depends on you for his or her well-being. In addition to providing daily care, love and affection, your best friend depends on you in an emergency. Whether your pet becomes ill or injured, or needs help in a disaster, the American Red Cross can help.

Our Pet First Aid book and Pet First Aid course (offered at select chapters) teaches you emergency care procedures for cats and dogs and provides tips for keeping your pet happy and healthy too.

This soft-covered book is 111 pages long, and features more than 130 illustrations. It was written by Bobbie Mammato, DVM, MPH. Pet First Aid makes a perfect gift for everybody you know with a cat or dog! Contact your local chapter for more information about your local pet first aid course.
