K9 First Aid 911 with Dr. Marty Greer, D.V.M.
2025-01-01 - 2025-12-31
Dr. Marty Greer, DVM, walks you through everything you need in a complete, deluxe canine first aid kit, how to triage and manage trauma, illness, and reproductive emergencies until you can get veterinary help. As we all know, veterinary practices are currently overwhelmed, understaffed, and often nearly impossible to access in an emergency. Dr. Greer offers absolutely invaluable, life-saving advice for our dogs while advising what we can not, under any circumstances, do on our own. This series cannot be beaten for practical, hands-on, professional advice for emergency situations.
