SEMI NAVHDA was thrilled and thankful to host local veterinarian Dr. Chris Repke for a Canine First Aid clinic this afternoon.
During the sold-out seminar, Dr. Chris addressed common scenarios we might encounter with our versatile dogs, breaking them down into emergencies, things to treat in the field or truck, and things that can wait for a call Monday. He covered topics specifically requested by members, and shared how to be prepared in real-world scenarios.
Dr. Chris generously donated his time for the event, so the entire fee for the clinic went to providing custom first aid kits for all attendees. These were no off-the-shelf kit; the items were recommended by Dr. Chris and curated specifically for this seminar. There are no extra kits available for purchase, but the contents list is included here so you can make sure you have all you need to be prepared!
A huge thank you to Dr. Chris from Pointe Animal Hospital for so generously sharing his time and knowledge; to Highland Fire Dept. Station 1 for allowing us to use the training room, and to Dale Bolyard for planning and coordinating.
