Learn vital dog first aid from home. Spot emergencies, treat trauma, and respond quickly—keep your dog safe in any situation.

Dogs can’t tell us when something’s wrong—but knowing what to look for could make all the difference. This Diploma in Dog First Aid gives you essential knowledge to respond to common and critical situations, from cuts and bites to seizures and heatstroke. You’ll learn what belongs in a canine first aid kit, how to spot signs of poisoning or trauma, and the steps to take when seconds count.
The course is designed for dog owners, carers, walkers, and anyone working around dogs. With a clear, straightforward structure, you’ll gain confidence in recognising danger, avoiding common hazards, and offering first aid support until veterinary help is available. All content is delivered online, so you can learn at your pace, wherever you are.
