Backcountry Dog First Aid Workshop

March 30 @ 10:00 am 11:45 am

$50.00 This includes a small pet specific first aid kit

Got an active dog who loves the backcountry as much as you do? Join us for an introductory session to learn how to plan for, avoid, and manage some of the most common injuries and illnesses that your dog might encounter on the trail. We will teach you how to examine and triage your dog to decide how urgently to seek veterinary care. Basic first aid topics will be covered, including porcupine quill removal, wound care, bandaging and more. Your teacher will be our very own local veterinarian, Dr. Chelsea Grimstad. Dr. Grimstad combines her years of Alaska climbing, hiking, biking and, hiking with a passion for “taking the dogs along”.
