Helping People Protect the Pets They Love
PawResponse was created to give pet owners and pet-care professionals practical skills they can use during the critical first moments of a pet emergency.
Many people consider their pets part of the family, but few receive formal training in pet CPR, choking response, bleeding control, heat emergencies, poisoning, or safe transportation of an injured animal. PawResponse helps close that preparedness gap.
Our courses are designed to be understandable, practical, and welcoming. Participants learn how to recognize a serious problem, provide appropriate first aid, avoid actions that could make the situation worse, and seek professional veterinary care.
PawResponse is a division of the Board of Certified Emergency Providers. bcepregistry.org ↗
