Welcome to The Pet Medic Training!
Preparedness Saves Lives
The Pet Medic Training provides pet emergency preparedness training, pet first aid and CPR education, pet safety training, and pet disaster preparedness and readiness training for pet owners, pet industry professionals, and operational K9 teams throughout Hawaiʻi.
In real-world pet emergencies, safety incidents, and disaster situations, preparation matters.
Because of this, the training focuses on situational awareness, risk recognition, and clear decision-making under pressure.
Emergency Readiness Is a Skill — Not a Guess
The Pet Medic Training was founded by Bertha, a U.S. Army combat veteran and certified pet emergency training instructor.
As a result of her military background, every course is built on discipline, structure, and calm-under-pressure principles.
In operational environments, medics act when time is limited and outcomes depend on preparation.
Likewise, this same standard of readiness guides all pet emergency, safety, and disaster training programs.
The mission is clear: to raise the standard of pet and working K9 emergency readiness.
This is accomplished by teaching individuals and organizations how to identify risk, respond appropriately, and make informed decisions during pet medical emergencies, safety incidents, and natural disasters.

Specifically, instruction includes:
- Pet first aid and pet CPR fundamentals
