Testimonials 


"I was at a friends house and she gave Lindsay a little piece of dog cookie. Lindsay started choking. She had her little paws splayed out as she seemed to be gasping for air. I very calmly performed the Heimlich Manoevre on her (at the point where the ribs join, as you showed us) and she stopped gasping immediately. I couldn't believe how natural it was for me. I did not panic at all. Thanks for the great course...!!! "

"Mississauga Animal Services would like to extend a sincere thank you for instructing our Staff on Pet First Aid in March 2007. Everyone agreed that your instruction on the course material was wonderful and made a very comprehensive day go by very quickly.

Staff were also very impressed by your enthusiasm and passion for educating pet owners about all facets of pet care and pet first aid. We would highly recommend this course to pet owners and pet care professionals alike."

"The Pet First Aid course offered by Corinna at Doggie Minder is an excellent course. It covers any first aid topic that I can imagine. It is taught in a structured but very friendly and informal environment where questions, discussion, and participation are encouraged. Also, many of the techniques are practiced on stuffed animals and real dogs. The course has really boosted my confidence for dealing with a pet medical emergency. I would highly recommend this course to anyone who owns or takes care of pets!"

William Seto, Dog Lover
"For many people, myself included, our pets are included in the phrase “loved ones”. When our human “loved ones” have a medical emergency we can phone the ambulance and they’ll have the needed medical attention within minutes. Not so for our furry friends. This course made me feel more prepared to care for my dog the way he deserves to be cared for. I now feel reasonably capable to stay in control of an emergency situation until I can get my pup to veterinary help, while remembering that I can never REPLACE veterinary help. Thanks Corinna, Farley and I had a blast!"

Jennifer Bentley, Mom of Farley the Golden Retriever
"I found the course very thorough and easy to understand. And I gained a lot more confidence that I could take control of an emergency situation and make a difference for an injured pet.

Good luck Corinna! And thanks again!"
