Pet First Responder
Pet First Responder
The Canine First Responder Course™ Curriculum is the only course approved by Emergency First Response - the largest certification agency worldwide for first aid and CPR training. You will be issued with an internationally recognised certificate upon successful completion of the course. This is far exceeds some more basic 'first aid' courses out there and is the only course in Ireland to be fully accredited by the Veterinary Council of Ireland and supported by the Irish Veterinary Nurses Association.
It provides realistic CPR practice on a canine manikin - Casper. (He even has a pulse!) On top of the standard Canine First Responder course, Alice the cat behaviourist is going to give you extra tips on how handling cat situation to make an all round Pet First Responder course. Class is limited to 8 students only due to the hands-on nature of the course. We want to make sure each student has enough time to practise on the pet manikins.
For cat lovers who wonder if this course is suitable to you. The answer is - Yes! There is no recognised Feline First Responder course at the moment. The techniques performed on small dogs and cats are very similar. Alice will of course explain the difference when dealing with cats. Plus, you can come across a dog collapse on a hot summer day and need your help!
