Pet Safety Crusader — Fri, 17 Dec 2021 18:15:15 +0000

Topics covered include: how to check vitals, what to have in your pet’s first aid kit, safe handling, restraint & transport of an injured animal and what to do for bites & stings, bleeding injuries & bandaging, bloat, breaks & strains, burns, constipation, diarrhea & vomiting, frostbite, heatstroke, poisoning, seizures, shock as well as how to handle a choking incident, rescue breathing and CPR, including the most up-to-date protocol: CPCR (Cardio Pulmonary Cerebral Resuscitation).

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!

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.

Check out the corresponding PET DISASTER PREPAREDNESS CERTIFICATE COURSE to make double dog sure you’re prepared for anything that comes your way!
