The Dog Owner's Library 3362 - Dog First Aid at Home

When your dog is injured or suddenly ill, panic is the worst enemy. This book gives you clear, step-by-step guidance for handling common emergencies at home, from cuts and burns to choking, poisoning, and bloat. You'll learn how to assess danger, perform CPR safely, build a well-stocked first aid kit, and recognise the signs that demand an immediate vet visit. Every technique is reward-based and force-free, because frightened dogs need gentleness not force. No medical jargon, no guesswork—just practical knowledge that could save your dog's life. Whether you're dealing with a bleeding paw or a seizure, you'll stay calm and know exactly what to do. Written by experienced dog writer Lachlan Glenmoriston Lauder, this guide respects your dog's wellbeing and your own limits. It does not replace veterinary care but bridges the critical gap between accident and professional help. Part of The Dog Owner's Library.
