Join us for a hands-on educational workshop led by Alice Murtas from Better Veterinary, following principles from the RECOVER Initiative — the leading authority on veterinary CPR guidelines.
Emergencies can happen when we least expect them. Being prepared can make all the difference. During this 2.5-hour class, you’ll learn practical skills to help you feel more confident responding in emergency situations involving your pet.
What You’ll Learn
This class will cover:
How to perform CPR on dogs
What to do if a dog is choking
Basic first aid for paw injuries and wounds
Signs that indicate a pet may be sick or injured
Safe tick removal procedures
How to respond calmly and effectively in urgent situations
Participants will receive a Fire Hydrant Certificate of Completion. While this class does not include official RECOVER certification, Alice can provide guidance on how to pursue RECOVER certification separately for those interested.
Who This Class Is For
Pet parents who want to feel more prepared in emergencies
Dog walkers, pet sitters, and pet professionals
Anyone responsible for the care of a dog
Families wanting practical safety skills
No prior medical knowledge is required.
Spots Are Limited. The class sizes will be small to allow time for questions and discussion.
