Saturday, 11 November, from 2-5:30 p.m. at the Weiterbildungszentrum Bocholt
The VHS is offering a seminar entitled "First Aid for Dogs" on Saturday, 11 November, from 2-5:30 pm. Instructor Britta Günther will not only teach theory, but also a lot of practice. The venue is the Bocholt training centre on Stenerner Weg. Further information and registration is available on the Internet at vhs-bocholt.de or at the VHS office in Bocholt. The participation fee is 34 euros.
Help in an emergency
The small "all-round package" helps to keep calm and act prudently in an emergency. How do I recognise an emergency and classify it correctly, for example in the case of poisoning, ingestion of foreign bodies, heat stroke, insect bites or shock after an accident? What should I do if the dog is bleeding heavily or has injured its eye? What is the correct storage method and what should be considered when transporting the dog to the vet?
These questions are clarified and supported by practical exercises. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation is explained and practised on a dog dummy.
The course can be certified as recognised training for breeders or boarding kennels in order to fulfil the general training obligation.
