    “I think taking a class like Arden’s is a really good step in pet first aid safety. Learning in theory is one thing but learning how to do these physical skills and getting feedback is so critical. I also like that Arden’s classes are veterinarian-approved. She is always striving to teach the latest in pet first aid/CPR."

    ““I thought my cat was trying to hack up a hairball. But I realized there was no sound. I went over and realized that he was not getting any air in. He was choking. Some time ago, I took a pet first aid class with Arden Moore. She is amazing. If it weren’t for that class, my cat would not be here. I learned how to perform the Heimlich on my cat. Do you know do it on your pet? Make sure you learn how to do these things, take a pet first aid class with Arden.”

    ““As a long-time Pet First-Aid Instructor, I know each individual brings something special to their teachings and Arden Moore is no exception. Arden puts her heart & soul into sharing important information with pet parents so that they can help animals in need. If I can't be somewhere to teach, I feel confident in sending others to Arden for their educational needs!”
