April has arrived and with it many National Pet Holidays and Observances and I am going to focus on one in the blog this week which I think is just as important as the others but the main reason I am focusing on this one is that Spring has arrived, summer is around the corner and that means we are outdoors more, hiking, camping plus many more adventures.
I am so busy sniffing here, Nili

When we pack for those adventures one of the important items that some of us forget about is the First Aid Kit for our Pet, we remember for us and remember many items for the pets but this is one that we forget. It happens cos we are humans LOL.
What should a First Aid Kit have, we can either build our own or buy one that is prepared already, I personally have put my own together as it was easier plus it is easier for me to keep an eye on the expiry dates and some of the over the counter ones come with food, etc which I do not need.
What is in my kit:
I have made sure our first aid kit is not that heavy so that it makes it easy for me to take it when I am out for the day on an adventure with Nili.
This kit with of course other items I keep in my earthquake emergency bag and take out when needed so it makes my life easier and I am more relaxed.
I also keep with my kit the book : Dr. Pitcairn’s Complete Guide which is my Bible for everything. And for some of you that do not know we had an earthquake a week ago but thank goodness we did not have to evacuate and there was no damage but to my sleep.
I do admit I am a Jewish Mom so am always worried about Nili when we go to different dog parks or other outdoor activities and that is the reason that I am reminding all of us.
Do you have a first aid kit for your pet? What do you have in yours?
We are so looking forward to the summer, spending time outdoors and having fun which is so needed after all the winter.
Have a great week everyone
With a woof and love from Nili.
