        Comments about Field Guide To Dog First Aid:

        I have had to refer to this book a few times and it has probably saved my dogs life and a few hefty vet bills. A very good reference, especially in emergency situations.

        Comments about Field Guide To Dog First Aid:

        An excellent resource that is always tucked into my 'dog first aid' kit. It's a very practical book which offers practical solutions to potential problems rather than making the assumption you can get to a vet in a timely manner. I've used several of the tips offered in the book for prevention/treatment of pad abrasions and lacerations. Aside from being easily readable, it has application for every dog owner whether your dog is a park goer or a backcountry companion.

          Great book to have on the trail in case of canine injuries. It's small and light enough to pack easily. I haven't had to use it yet, but am always very glad to have it along!
