Having a guide from alternative pet care health clinics can lead you through the process. If you suspect your pet has been hit, Call the Vet Now.

Check Breathing and Heartbeat

If your pet is having trouble breathing or breathing through their mouth, Call the Vet Now. Check your pets pulse by putting your fingers inside the thigh of the black legs or listening by putting your ear on the chest behind the pet's left elbow.

Stop Bleeding and Cover wounds
If there is bleeding , apply pressure with a clean cloth for at least 5 minutes. Cover the wound to prevent infection. A bandage will work but so will a clean towel.

Broken Legs
If your pet pet's leg is hanging or bent in a strange fashion or not of use, try to get it immobilized. Wrap the leg in bubble wrap or newspaper then wrap with a towel. Put tape on next to keep the bubble wrap ext to the towel. Call the Vet Now.

Handle with Care
Get a board or some form of firm surface. Gently slide your pet onto a sheet and then
onto the board. If this is not readily available, cradle your pet by putting your left arm around his chest and placing your right arm around his rump. Quickly and gently, get to the Vet Now.
