Our working K9s face emergency situations every day.  This course gives the handlers the necessary skills to help their k9 partners in a first aid crisis.

This hands-on course covers on-the-job hazards and situations, such as:

CPR and mouth to nose resuscitation, endotracheal intubation, stitching, blunt force trauma, tear gas and blistering agent exposure, fractures and breaks, impalement, stabbing and gunshot wounds, environmental hazard exposure such as fuels and narcotics (including NARCAN administration), k9 extraction (single handler), stabilization for transportation, hypo/hyperthermia, exhaustion and heat stroke, canine concussion, glass in pads, and tons more!
