ANIMAL EMT
First Responders and K9 Handlers
Empowering you to provide life-saving interventions in the field.
Pre-Hospital Stabilization
There is growing demand for the administration of early and potentially life-saving interventions to injured companion and working animals in the field. This care is not meant to replace that provided by a licensed veterinarian; rather, it is meant to provide stabilization prior to and during transport to a veterinarian. We believe that emergency response personnel have the skills necessary to provide this potentially life-saving care, and we are dedicated to assisting them in developing those skills.
