Canine Heat Injury First Aid in the Real World and in Your Fiction.

Last year, I took a course in K9 first aid with Veterinary Tactical Group. This entailed two days of hands on AMAZING learning that I couldn't recommend more to folks who are out with their dogs. 

I took this course for my role as a search and rescue team member. When I'm on a search, I have ended up on K9 search tasks almost every time. If something were to happen to the SAR dog, I want to be equipped to handle the situation, especially if the dog's handler is injured as well. 

On the Veterinary Tactical Group Facebook page, they posted information I think is critical for all dog owners to know. 

And too, if you're writing about dogs, and it's hot in your scene, you want to make sure that you plot in the correct way to keep those doggos safe. In doing so, you might just save a reader's dog's life. People learn through reading. And that's why ThrillWriters aim to write it right.

Contact Veterinary Tactical Group for class opportunities around the United States. And get first aid tips on their Facebook page.
