Are You Prepared For an Emergency?  In this episode, I chat with Nicole, a German native living in Atlanta, Georgia, who has transitioned from a 20-year career in the trade show business to teaching pet first aid.  Nicole shares how her own experiences, particularly in remote areas with her Doberman while her husband rock climbs, spurred her interest in pet first aid.  She became certified through Pet Tech, likened to the American Red Cross for pets, and now teaches comprehensive classes for both dog and cat owners.  Nicole points out how important it is to be prepared for emergencies, covering a wide range of topics from prevention and CPR to how to handle choking and inducing vomiting.  So, how prepared are YOU for a doggie emergency?
