Knowing dog first aid skills are very important [url=http://www.montrealcanadiensteamstore.com/adidas-joel-armia-jersey]Joel Armia Jersey Youth[/url] , just as with humans and knowing what to do in the event of an emergency may mean the difference between life and death for your dog. Dog emergencies or any other extreme medical situations require that you get your dog to the veterinarian as quickly as possible.
Of course, not every possible ailment will need professional treatment but better safe than sorry. If your dog ever receives any kind of injury it is always best that you be aware of what to do in advance (depending on what type of injury the dog has received). Different kinds of injuries require different kinds of treatments. Many kinds of injuries may require immediate medical assistance. It is a very good idea to know how to prevent any dog emergencies, treat various minor injuries with first aid and just when you need to seek immediate veterinary assistance and care.
In case an emergency ever were to happen it is easy to prepare for it in advance by creating your own dog first aid kit. It is very easy to create. Good ideas for containers could be a lunch box, a tackle box or some other shoe box sized plastic container. Water-proof and strong enough to withstand mild pressure is the best idea.
It would be a great idea to label the first aid kit on all sides with something such as "Dog First Aid Kit". It's also a very good idea to list a description of your dog(s) including it's name, color, weight, any health issues, distinguishing characteristics with a recent photo labeled with the name of every pet that you own.
An index card with the numbers of your local veterinarian [url=http://www.montrealcanadiensteamstore.com/adidas-mike-reilly-jersey]Mike Reilly Jersey Youth[/url] , poison control, and other canine emergency numbers for your dog (emergency vet, etc) is also a good thing to include in the dog first aid kit. Here is a list of several items you should put in your dog first aid kit with brief explanations as to what each item is for. Remember, your dog's health may depend on it.
