I’ve reviewed many first aid books in my search. This is the clearest, most practical canine first aid book I’ve found. Most books read "take dog to nearest vet", this isn’t always possible and this book covers what to do in those situations using clear text and precise pictures. Essential for anyone who takes their dog anywhere (even those dogs who just go to the park and back), but essential for dogs who go hiking, camping, travelling, kayaking, etc with their humans; anywhere you wouldn’t be able to reach a vet within 20 minutes. Keep one in your car’s glove box, the dog’s backpack (along with a portable first aid kit), and one at home.

Being a nurse, I take the proverbial "be prepared" to extremes, but when you are camping hundreds of miles away from the nearest emergency health care facility, you must be educated to handle most emergencies of your family members.
Well, DON"T FORGET THE DOG
We just adopted a wonderful black labrador, and being a busy outdoor kind of family I needed a concise, handy, well rounded emergency care manual for my little boy, Abbott. I researched and decided on this pocket field guide that is perfect for carrying on your outdoor excursions. I am pleased with the content and find the directions easy to follow, even for a lay person uneducated in medicine.
Hopefully, my dog will never need emergent care, but I feel better knowing and gathering the knowledge needed to be there for him if the need becomes reality. Buy this book and put together a first aid kit for your dog. His life could depend on it.

Editorial reviews states this book is spiral bound and is one of the major reasons I purchased it for the "flipping ease". It is NOT spiral bound or at least the one that was shipped to me wasn’t. The advise is great contained within the book – but would be a fabulous product if it actually were spiral bound.
