To enjoy summertime with our dogs–being prepared for an emergency at home, at the beach, away on vacation this summer is something every pet pa
rent should know how to do. Handling a pet emergency from something as simple as a cut to saving your dogs life with pet CPR, can be extremely scary for pet owners.
Pet parents should learn life saving techniques in case of an emergency with their pets by taking a Pet First Aid and CPR Class. They can learn how to care for their pet’s aliments such as: scrapes, cuts, injured paw pads, sunburn, removing a tick and even more life threatening accidents, heatstroke, choking or pet illnesses.
To learn to help prevent these injuries or how to treat them pet owners can take the next Pet First Aid and CPR Class on Saturday, July 11, 2015 fro
m 9:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at Bidawee in Wantagh. Robyn Elman, President of In Home Pet Services, Inc., who is a certified ‘Pet Tech’ Instructor in the tri-state area is instructing this class. Robyn, who is also a former zoologist, has been teaching these classes since 2007. A portion of the proceeds of this class will benefit Pet Safe Coalition a non-profit organization dedicated to educating the public in emergency preparedness for their pets.
This class is offered to pet owners, pet professionals, and anyone that wants to learn these very important pet life saving procedures.

Using a life sized stuffed animal dog, this class will teach participants how to: restrain an injured or ill pet; CPR and rescue breathing; bleeding injuries; warm weather element and injuries; spring and summer dangers to pets and how to prevent them; bandaging; insect bites and much more.
