APRIL IS NATIONAL PET FIRST AID AWARENESS MONTH

Lafayette, CO - April 1, 2005 - NATIONAL PET FIRST AID AWARENESS MONTH: April 1-30

"National Pet First Aid Awareness Month continues to be a focal point for pet owners and pet care professionals. Each year we emphasize the importance of being caring, conscientious, responsible and loving pet owners and pet care professionals through education and training. Our theme for National Pet First Aid Awareness Month 2005, is "Pets and People Staying Healthy Together."

Owner of e-Services Pet Care, Rhonnie McCauley is a certified pet instructor for pet first aid and CPR. She believes that it is necessary to learn the skills of CPR , first aid and care for your family of pets. Pet first aid is the immediate care given to a pet that has been injured or suddenly taken ill. This includes your home care and when necessary veterinary help. Knowing the skills and the techniques of pet first aid can mean the difference between life and death: temporary and permanent disability: and expensive veterinarian bills and reasonable home care.

Thom Somes, The Pet Safety Guy, recommends that everyone successfully complete a pet first aid class taught by a properly trained instructor. Pet Tech training also teaches the top 10 reasons to seek veterinary care, how to put together your own pet first aid kit and establishing an open relationship with your veterinarian.

During April 1-30, focus on Pets and People Staying Healthy Together. This will increase the quality and quantity of pets' lives.
