Basic First Aid for
Pet Groomers
|
|
If you haven't had an accident in your grooming shop yet -- you probably will. The best way to deal with an accident is to be prepared. Do you work around animals and sharp instruments? Guess what? You are going to have to administer some basic first aid at some point in your career.
Did you know that before Judy Hudson was an award winning pet stylist, she was a certified a veterinarian technician? In three states? There isn't much that flusters Judy -- including dealing with injuries. With that kind of experience in her background, we asked Judy to talk to you about basic first aid in the pet grooming salon.
Judy's no nonsense approach allows her to cover a lot of ground in a very short time. She talks about typical accidents that happen in grooming shops all over. She gives you over 30 solutions, ideas and mini lessons. All the lessons deal with simple medical issues that you are likely to see in your shop.
Our demo dog, Cache, is less than thrilled with the entire lesson. You'll see it in her eyes. You'll see it in her yawns. But she's a trooper. By using a large dog for demonstration purposes, Judy is able to clearly demonstrate many of her techniques.
Throughout the lesson, Judy shares first-hand experiences and stories to help drive her points home. This is a fun lesson with many "Ah-ha" moments.

A competent pet care specialist can do a lot to avoid injury. The better you understand canine and feline body language, the less likely you are to be bitten. However, when the inevitable happens, here's a handy trick you can use.
