Human & Animal Emergency Lifeline Preparedness

17/01/2026

We’re Heading to Kentucky!
We’re excited to announce that H.E.L.P. (Human & Animal Emergency Lifeline Preparedness) will be taught at the RW GroomX Expo in Owensboro Kentucky, May 28-31st!
Pet professionals are entrusted with the care of animals every single day—and emergencies don’t wait for a vet clinic. This hands-on class equips groomers and pet professionals with critical skills in Animal CPR, First Aid, and Emergency Preparedness, so you’re ready to act when it matters most.

In addition to CPR and First Aid, we’ll also be teaching our Emergency Preparedness Scenario Class, focusing on real-world situations like fires, evacuations, medical emergencies, and business readiness.

Preparedness is part of professionalism.

It's Giving Tuesday! — Support Both Ends of the Leash

Today is all about giving back — and at Bishop’s Mission, we are raising funds
to support both ends of the leash — the department support dogs and the first responders who rely on them.

At Bishop’s Mission, our work includes:

🐾 K9 Peer Support & Wellness — wellness bags, enrichment tools, grooming + wellness items for department dogs

🧡 First Responder Peer Support — CISM-based support, debriefings, and wellness resources for those carrying the weight of critical incidents

These teams show up for their communities every single day.
Today, we show up for them.

Your Giving Tuesday donation helps us:
✨ Grow our peer support outreach
✨ Provide K9 wellness bags + care items to departments nationwide
✨ Care for the responders and the dogs who comfort others

💙 Donate today — www.bishopsmission.org

Help us support both ends of the leash. Every dollar helps us reach more departments

Most pet parents aren’t ready for emergencies—and pets pay the price.

• 9 in 10 pet owners have never had any pet first-aid training.
• The ASPCA Poison Control handled 401,550+ pet toxin cases in a single year—hundreds of thousands of emergencies that start at home.
• ERs say vomiting, diarrhea, bites and toxin exposures are among the top reasons pets land in emergency care.
• Access is tight: not all hospitals are 24/7, so minutes matter before you can be seen.

Why training matters
Knowing how to assess, stabilize, and transport buys your pet crucial time, reduces panic, and can improve outcomes until you reach a vet. Basic skills—safe muzzle, bleeding control, heat-stress response, CPR—can be the difference between life and loss.

Congratulations to Pet Makeovers in Mesa! 🐾
We had the joy of teaching not only Pet CPR & First Aid, but also Emergency Preparedness.

Thank you for being part of the Pet Emergency Network and for being true professionals who give 100% to the pets in your care!

One of my favorite parts of the week is teaching the EVIT class. Why? Because I know the newest grooming students are leaving with the knowledge and confidence to act if a pet ever faces an emergency while in their care.

In an unregulated industry, that peace of mind is music to my heart. 💙🐾

This week, we welcomed 37 new Pet First Responders into the Pet Emergency Network — each one ready to make a difference when it matters most!
