Pet First Aid

Pet first aid involves providing immediate care to your pet in the event of an injury, illness, or emergency situation. While it doesn’t replace professional veterinary care, it can help stabilize your pet and prevent further harm until you can seek professional assistance. Here are some general guidelines for pet first aid:

Assessment:

1. Remain calm and approach your pet slowly.

2. Assess the situation for any immediate dangers to yourself and your pet.

3.Check your pet’s breathing and pulse.
