K-9 Medical & Trauma Training ​

Tier 1 - K-9 education
•Why Canine Emergency Care is important in our line of work for disaster relief, SAR, terrorist situations, drug interdiction, Law Enforcement, EOD, and more.


For civilian K-9 units, there are veterinarians everywhere, but not all of them are experienced in Emergency Medicine and Critical Care, especially GSW

.

• As in human wounding, initial care is most critical, and that care is often given by the dog's human team-mates

• K-9s are often injured in high-risk missions involving disaster relief, SAR, and terrorist situations

•May be impractical or impossible to evacuate to a veterinarian

•Civilian-owned dogs frequently have limited budgets for vet care away from HQ2

​•K-9s rely on the human medical infrastructure
