We are delighted to be hosting a repeat session in Horndean, Hants – a chance for all our previous students to refresh their certification and for new students to join us for a potentially life-saving session.
This session, just like all our others, is sure to be fun, lively and incredibly effective at getting the important first aid information across that could well save the life of your furry companion. Teaching time is 3.5 hours with 15 minute break for FREE tea OR coffee.
The K9 1st Aid courses delivered by Rhodes 2 Safety have been ranked as the UK’s Number 1 consistently since 2016 and this year we can also add being a finalist in the Pet Related Business of the Year Award, 2024 – so you know the information and service you get will be second-to-none.
We deal with shock, bleeding, choking, bites, road traffic accidents as well as the big topics of CPR and Artificial Respiration
Students DO NOT bring their dogs, but I will have one or two of my Ridgebacks with me for demonstration purposes.
.
Each student will gain a certificate of attendance and full course notes to take away, so note taking throughout the session is unnecessary. For students attending as part of their vocational studies, the course generates 3 CPD points.
.
Everybody will be seated in a horseshoe so that EVERYBODY is on the front row – nobody should be struggling to see.
.
During the bandaging section, I will demonstrate on one of my dogs. A dog cannot give you any feedback about your skills so by practicing your skills on a person, we can get their honest opinion once the bandage is complete. Human skin also reacts by changing colour and temperature if it is too tight and swells up. To practice on a toy would not give you any of this feedback and I would not be happy about anybody practicing on a live animal until they are proficient in it – I am, however, more than happy for them to torture a human!
.
At the end of the session, there will be first aid products on sale too such as our Rhodes 2 Recovery book, bandages, first aid kits, vet wrap, tick pickers etc.

Why not come and join us?
