Is there an animal doctor in the house?
Most likely, the answer is no. And when an accident or other emergency threatens your pet, every minute counts. Don't be unprepared! Open The First-Aid Companion for Dogs and Cats and learn:
* Basic first-aid techniques, such as cleaning a wound, making a splint, and performing CPR-- step-by-step!
* Which over-the-counter human medications can help-- or harm-- your dog or cat
* What to keep in your pet's medicine chest (many essential items are probably in your house already!)
* How to quickly pinpoint what's wrong with your pet, using the First-Aid Symptom Finder
Plus, you'll discover a comprehensive A-to-Z guide to more than 150 common-- and not-so-common-- injuries and conditions, including:
* Abscesses (page 60)
* Bites from Animals (page 90)
* Car Accidents (page 117)
* Choking (page 131)
* Gunshot Wounds (page 224)
* Heatstroke (page 237)
* Hot Spots (page 245)
* Jellyfish Stings (page 269)
* Poisoning (page 311)
* Snakebites (page 350)
Each at-a-glance entry tells you when to call the vet, which supplies or medications you'll need, what immediate action you should take, and what you should do as follow-up care.
By knowing what to do in an emergency and then acting quickly and confidently to take the proper steps, you could save your pet's life. The next time medical help is not quickly available, reach for The First-Aid Companion for Dogs and Cats. It's a pet owner's second best friend.

Customer Rating: 
Summary: I love this book!
Comment: I foster cats for a local shelter and have cats of my own. This book is very easy to understand and gives you very detailed information on whatever is ailing your pet. It has more serious ailments such as a heat stroke and more casual ones such as vomiting up a hairball. It also has a handy chart that tells you what human medicines will work for your pets. I highly recommend it.
Customer Rating:
Summary: A must have if you have dogs (and cats)
Comment: A must have if you have dogs and cats, I've read a lot of books about dog health and this has got to be one of the best. It helps you prepare for and deal with an emergency. For example there's a whole list of items you should have on hand, a doggie first aid kit. Immediate action can be the difference between life and death of a beloved pet and this book really does describe important procedures that could definitely save a life in those crucial moments. The book is written in a clear and easy to follow fashion, I highly recommend it if you're a dog/cat owner/lover. This book goes very well with this one:
Dog Owner's Home Veterinary Handbook
Customer Rating:
Summary: Great to have around.
Comment: This book is extremely helpful when you have pets. I have used it many times now.
Customer Rating:
Summary: A MUST have for cat or dog owners!
Comment: I definitely reccomend this for anyone who loves their cats and dogs like family members! There are many life saving tips in this great book. I bought this book because I have a cat who like to chew on things, including electrical wires. I learned a lot about this scary issue, as well as, many other life saving bits of information that I had never known before. There is even a section on human medicine that is safe for cats and dogs. I think this book would come in handy in the event of an emergency after vet hours!!
