Training people can use

Practise. Repeat. Respond.

Certificates matter, but people need to remember what to do when a dog is injured, frightened and deteriorating. CRA classroom routes prioritise guided practice, clear escalation and honest limits.

  • Canine CPR mannequins
  • Bandaging and bleeding-control practice
  • Role-specific emergency scenarios
  • Veterinary handover and incident records

Carry the right kit

Equipment explained by use, not piece count.

Owner, professional and working-dog equipment remain clearly separated from specialist bleed-control products.
