i really wanted to know how to give first aide to dogs because i have 9 dogs here in the house... so many right? it's my responsibility to take care of them because they are my babies...i don't know what to do if one of them will be gone... i really love them... That's why i need to know how to give them first aide... i must be prepared of what's going to happen for the future...can someone tell me please...

first aid huh.. hmmm.. i don't know a lot of first aid for humans, let alone for dogs.. but one thing i do for my pet dogs when they look terribly sick is give them water with sugar in it, probably 2-3 spoons per cup. i'm not really sure what it does or how it works, but in my experience, it does work most of the time.

yes the above is correct when a human has dehydration they we give sugar + salt water after every 1 or 1/2 hr so we can give the same to dogs

Hi dog lover, Dogs are normally like us, if they get hurt clean the wound like us apply cream and bandaid. but most important if they eat someting posionous dont let the dog sleep and hold the water pipe in his mouth so that he drink lot of water then he will vomit. then take him to the doc. enjoy petting :)

These are a few tablets which my friend told me.Incase the dogs have fever give them one paracetomol.You can know they have fever by touching the nose if its moist they have normal fever else it indicates fever.If they have motions i was told to give them 2 metronidazole tablets a day.Clean the ears so they dont get ear infection.

Oral resuscitation? CPR? I don't think they apply on dogs. What about splashing them with cold water? (just kidding)..Anyway, the worst thing your dog can have is accidents (plunging into deep mud pits, trap in a manhole, hit by a car?, etc). The best thing is to keep your dog safe at all times.
