In Case of Emergency


Our pets are part of our families, so of course we want to keep them safe and happy. Today I wanted post links to the websites that I think could be the most helpful in case there was a pet-related emergency in your home. You may want to add these individually to your "favorites" on your computer, or you may just want to add this post to your favorites as a short cut.


Healthypet.com has a great step-by-step article on pet CPR here:


Petsamerica.org has posted comprehensive video on pet CPR which can be found here:

It’s best to review the information on pet CPR before you have an emergency.

The ASPCA  has a 24 hour a day, 365 day a year emergency poison control service at (888) 426-4435 (there may be a fee). But they also have a lot of information about foods to avoid feeding your pet, toxic and non-toxic plants and other related topics. You can read more here:


Findtoto.com is one of many companies nation-wide that provides services to help you find your lost pet or get a lost pet back home again. Services include things like automated phone alerts, social media alerts and posting flyers in the area a lost pet was last seen. They have a high success rate and provide helpful tips for finding your pet, too. 
Please microchip your pets and keep current tags on them to help them get home in case the worst happens.

And finally, few things will strike fear into your heart like catching the tail end of a news report about a pet food recall but you missed the name of the food involved. Sound familiar? Dogfoodadvisor.com has a page devoted to recent dog food recalls. They can be found here:
