Learn Pet First Aid & CPR at the Marin Humane Society
(NOVATO, CALIF., February 22, 2007) — Accidents happen. Help your dogs and cats survive a medical emergency by learning the skills for performing pet first aid and CPR. Two Pet First Aid & CPR workshops will be held Saturday, March 17 at the Marin Humane Society (171 Bel Marin Keys Blvd., Novato).
