EMERGENCY SERVICES
Pet First
Aid
The American Red Cross of the Quad Cities Area, the Quad
City Animal Welfare Center, and Petco have teamed up to
offer a Pet First Aid class for the Quad City area
community. The Pet First Aid class is designed to
protect both pet owners and their pets from further harm,
injury, or suffering during emergencies by teaching
prompt, effective actions and care that will safeguard the
life of an injured pet. Participants will learn when and
where to call for help, how to apply first aid techniques,
and learn emergency actions steps that can be used in
almost any emergency. Pet First Aid classes are ideal for
pet owners, humane societies, and local emergency care
personnel.
A special thanks to Petco for providing their support of
this program. Petco provided a grant that was used to
purchase dog and cat manikins and other training
materials.
