How to Learn Animal CPR
Knowing how to perform animal CPR can help save a life in the time it takes to reach veterinary care. Locating animal CPR courses in your community can be a simple process although online courses may be more accessible in some areas. Most often, animal CPR classroom courses are two- to four-hour one-day courses. Online courses also vary in length and may offer the freedom of working through the course at your leisure.
