This course is taught by Sharla McNair.

The course is veterinarian studied and approved and will give you the necessary information and skills required to stabilize an injured animal until qualified veterinary care can be accessed.

In the event of accident or injury you must be able to act quickly and decisively as it is your quick response to these situations that will make the difference.
