Bandaging your pet

A unique way to spend some quality time with your pet is to play the game of doctor with them! Take gauze or an ace bandage or some flex wrap and
practice practice practice. This creates a few different scenarios that could come in handy in the case of an emergency. First of all it familiarity for both you and your pet! You will learn how to make a bandage stay in place on a leg or an ear or a tail, while your pet learns that the bandages are nothing to fear.
The last thing you want your pet going through is the fear of being wrapped up during the already stressfulness of an urgent situation.

These games also allow your dog’s trust in you to bond. They can become accustomed to being restrained and this will allow them to more comfortable when the real emergency arrives.
