DoggedHealth

Every household with a dog should have a home first aid kit designed specifically for the four-legged resident. You can purchase a pre-packaged dog first aid kit at many pet supply stores, or you can make your own. Remember to store the contents in an air-tight container in a place that is out of reach of your dog, and alert other household members where the first aid box is. You must also check the contents of the kit periodically to make sure none of the items are out-of-date. Finally, do NOT give your dog any over-the-counter medicines without first checking with your dog’s vet.
