Give a child (ages 0 – 99) the gift of learning not to judge an animal, person, anything by exteriors but seeking out the treasure inside.

Notate who you would like the books autographed to and mailing address (only one address per set of two books please):

Don’t Judge a Book by its Cover

Mary-Alice and her friends like pretty clothes and hanging with the in-crowd, but when she requests a puppy for her birthday, her parents decide the fluffy one with the pink bow in the pet store may not be the best choice. Instead Mary-Alice ends up at the local Animal Shelter where she not only saves the life of a loving older dog, but learns that once you look beyond the plain cover of things, you can be treated to the true joys that lie underneath! Looking beyond the cover is truly canine in that dogs do not judge others based on their income, beauty or status. They live in the moment rejoicing in every kindness they are shown. Humans, young and not-so-young, can learn pawmazing lessons from our four-legged friends and when they Don’t Judge a Book by its Cover.

Start Off on the Right Paw: Don’t Judge a Book by its Cover II

Mary-Alice’s best friend Claire decides to adopt a ‘sister’ for her Pit Bull Rex, so the girls pay a visit to the local animal shelter. There they meet Bonsai, a Japanese Akita, very much in need of a forever home. For 6 long months, people have passed her by misjudging her to be too old, too big or too something. With the help of Claire’s mom, the girls give this loving dog a chance but must first Start Off on the Right Paw, properly introducing Bonsai to Rex and M.A.’s best friend, Mr. Rico. Along the way the girls understand the need for pet safety and excitedly await their chance to volunteer and help other animals in need.

Please note: The first book may arrive in it’s new “white” cover but has the same GRRReat information inside!

Instructor Status and Business Relationship

Please note that approval to teach Pet First Aid (PFA) classes does not establish an employment relationship with Sunny-dog Ink. Instructors are independent business owners and are solely responsible for operating, promoting, scheduling, and delivering their own classes. Teaching PFA classes is part of your own business activities and not conducted as an employee, agent, or representative of Sunny-dog Ink.

Logistics for YOUR Training

All Pet First Aid (PFA) classes delivered via Zoom are conducted individually, ensuring each student receives the same level of attention as in an in-person class. We book classes to fit your schedule and mine – just the two of us. Instructors are never paired with another student during a session. This one-on-one approach allows the instructor to:

Demonstrate techniques clearly and interactively
Observe and provide immediate feedback on the student’s practice
Answer questions in real time, tailored to the student’s learning pace
Create a focused, personalized learning environment that mirrors an in-person experience

This method ensures each student instructor gains a full understanding and confidence in Pet First Aid skills and how to teach them, maintaining the high-quality standards of our program.

Ongoing Training & Publicity Support

As a certified instructor, you won’t be on this journey alone! I host quarterly meet-ups (aka The Pet Safety Crusader Lifesavers Circle) with teaching updates, new material, and guest expert speakers — from veterinary dentists and toxicologists to snake envenomation specialists. By attending quarterly meetings and providing updates, generally, a renewal is not necessary since you are continuing to learn and hone your skills.

Monthly marketing support, including ready-to-use copy and graphics, is provided to make self-promotion easier and more effective.

The Pet Safety Crusader’s My Pet & Me Guide to Pet Disaster PAWparedness

PSC Admin — Mon, 10 Oct 2016 20:54:54 +0000

Whether the wind blows, the ground shakes, the flames rise or snow and water fall from the skies, YOU must be prepared for your pet’s sake! Disasters aren’t always on a regional scale. Power could go out on just your street or in only your building. A tree could fall on your roof or a water pipe could break in your home alone. Even without your neighbors being affected, your household of two-legged, four-legged, feathered, finned or scaled family members could be in distress.

If electricity ceases to flow, refrigerated food goes bad, aquarium pumps, filters and heat lamps no longer nourish life; climate control becomes challenging and sometimes deadly. Flooded basements bring disease and ruin while fire can cause ultimate destruction. When disaster strikes, it’s up to YOU to allow it to become a life and death situation or just a major inconvenience.

The author clearly lays out steps your pets need YOU to take to be READY, REACT and then RECOVER, but offers suggestions on how to help the humans too. Training, supplies, a positive mental attitude as well as a plan can make all the difference.

In addition to well-thought-out preparedness tips for humans and their animal companions, Denise Fleck provides templates for your own family’s emergency plan, what to have on hand and skills to possess, suggestions for specific disasters ranging from earthquakes, hurricanes & chemical disasters to tsunamis, power outages and civil unrest. The book concludes with a comprehensive manual covering basic first-aid – should the worst happen – for those who walk on two-legs, four paws or hooves, fly, swim or crawl.

Your pets need YOU to be prepared, and “The Pet Safety Crusader’s My Pet & Me Guide to Disaster PAWparedness” could set you on the path to being ready to handle most any situation that comes your way.
