Camping First Aid Checklist for Your Dog

I recommend buying a First -Aid Kit For Dogs and then adding the following contents to the kit.

Your Dog’s First-Aid Kit Should Include:

• Antiseptic/ Rubbing Alcohol (To clean and disinfect wounds)
• Coated Aspirin (For dog to ingest if in pain. Do not give dog regular aspirin and use extreme caution)
• Butterfly Bandages (To close wounds)
• Gauze
• Waterproof Surgical Tape
• Vet Wrap (Will stick to fur better than tape without pulling out hair)
• Tick Tweezers, Tick Key
• Tick Release
• Ear and Eye Drops (A little Ottomax and Terramycin)
• Kwik Stop/septic powder (To stop bleeding)
  
• Sock (To put over paw if cut/injured)
• First Aid Gel for Pets
• Foot Balm to protect paws in harsh cold/hot weather
