Pet First Aid and CPR

Pet First Aid and CPR for Pet Parents and Professionals

Join us for an essential hands-on pet first aid and CPR workshop for pet parents and professionals, at NYC's first dog friendly cafe Boris & Horton. Using a real CPR dog and stuffed animas you can practice on, be guided through practical first and emergency care for your furry friends - cats, too! Topics covered include vital signs, CPR, choking, wounds, bites, seizures, basic safety tips, dental care, safe vs dangerous home remedies, and more.

Participants each recieve a free take home first aid kit, and recieve an optional certificate of completion to add to that resume! Class fee includes the $5 cover to optionally bring your pup into the venue.

Please arrive 10 mintes before class to grab your coffee and tasty treats for you and your pup!

The class is taught by founder of Waggytail Rescue, Holly DeRito, who also rescued and saved with CPR a drowned dog from Prospect Park pond in 2019. Holly also provided first aid and care to bush fire animals in New South Whales in the bushfire crisis of 2020 and is certified as a vet assistant and in pet Reiki.

A portion of proceeds from each ticket goes to local animal welfare.
