  • This course is valueable to anyone who owns dogs or works with dogs. It is paced at an easy level and all knowledge builds on previous learning steps. The Instructors created a very easy and relaxed learning enviroment and all questions where answered with a great depth of experience and this shone through. The final scenarios where we put everything we had learnt through the day together actually suprised me how much we had taken in and were very realistic. The materials sent out prior to the course arrived the next day after I was notified they had been dispatched and are simple to follow despite how comprehensive they are. Would I recommend the course and the trainers? Definitely this is a must do course. Can't wait for the clicker workshop now.

  • Having recently attended this course, I would definately recommend it to anyone. The trainer was great and went at a pace that suited everyone. The course material was easy to understand and there was lots of practical hands on experience. I hope to never have to use any of the stuff I learnt but I feel confident that I can help my dogs (or others) in such situations from the knowledge I have learnt from the course. Good value for money and highly recommended :)

What I would highlight: This course was excellent. I have learnt so much today, not just canine first aid but socialization, training, diet, etc. A lot is common sense but it builds on the this with things that you may not necessarily think of but now, having been taught them, will never forget. Well paced, excellent materials and practical assessments / training. Highly knowledgeable trainer. Hopefully I will never have to use your skills but if I do, I know I will give that dog the best chance of reaching professional medical care. Can't wait for the instructor course!

The course follows the same protocols vets would use if they where first on the scene of you canine emergency so you will be safe in the knowledge that you have done exactly what the vet would have done if he were on the scene first.
