Join the Valley of the Sun Quail Forever chapter for an engaging and educational presentation on Field First Aid for Hunting Dogs—a must-attend event for any quail hunter, sporting dog owner, or outdoor enthusiast who wants to be better prepared when emergencies strike in the field.

Whether you're a seasoned hunter or new to bird hunting with dogs, this session will equip you with the knowledge and practical skills to respond effectively to common injuries and health emergencies that working dogs may face. Topics covered will include how to recognize and manage snake bites, heat stroke, lacerations, puncture wounds, gunshot injuries, and more. You'll learn what to carry in a canine field first aid kit, how to assess the severity of injuries, and what steps to take when veterinary care is not immediately available.

Led by an experienced presenter with real-world field knowledge, this talk emphasizes quick thinking, proper handling, and calm response—skills that can make a critical difference in your dog’s survival and recovery.

This event is open to the public and especially valuable for members of the hunting and sporting dog communities. Whether you're heading into desert terrain, upland fields, or wooded cover, knowing how to care for your canine partner in an emergency is a responsibility every dog owner should take seriously.

Don't miss this opportunity to learn life-saving techniques and connect with fellow hunters and dog lovers who are committed to safety, preparedness, and responsible dog ownership.

There is no registration required to attend.
