Free Pet First Aid: Essential Tips for Furry Friends

We’re a little bit obsessed with our dog, Hamburger — and judging by the comments, clearly not the only ones who’ve noticed. Danielle from FirstAidLive.com kindly sent us a Pet First Aid Kit: a compact, well-organized bag stocked with supplies to help if Burger gets cut, stung, or otherwise hurt. Here he is risking a classic tongue-in-zipper maneuver.

Hamburger the dog

Because so many of us treat our pets like family, we asked Danielle to spread the love. FirstAidLive.com generously offered one Pet First Aid Kit to a lucky reader. To enter, comment on this post with your pet’s name and one of their quirky habits — for example: “Hamburger: runs laps around our bed before bedtime.” Entries close Friday (11/21) at midnight EST. We’ll select a random winner and mail the kit within the United States only.

The kit contains 58 pieces arranged neatly in a single case, which means no more rummaging through a chaotic medicine drawer. It’s compact enough to be used for pets but also doubles as a human first aid kit in a pinch — assuming your pet doesn’t mind sharing gauze and antiseptic wipes with an accident-prone owner (who, by the way, almost cracked his head during a recent magazine shoot).

If you’re interested in pet-first-aid essentials, this kit is a tidy, practical option. We’re excited to read about your pets and their delightful oddities — bring on the funny habits and adorable names.
