Central Pasco Veterinary Cares Annual fundraiser to purchases sets of Pet Oxygen Masks
Pet photos with Santa day is Central Pasco Veterinary Care’s annual fundraiser to purchases sets of Pet Oxygen Masks for local fire trucks and first responders. Thanks to all who helped for all your support of this great cause!!!! After responding to house fires and volunteering to help the animal victims, Dr. Jo Ann Daniels has made it her mission to obtain Pet Oxygen Masks for Pasco County fire rescue first responders. These special masks can be fitted to human oxygen supplies to help pets affected by smoke inhalation to save lives.
Just as important as the proper equipment is the training of its use. Understanding how to administer oxygen therapy to animals and how to interact with a stressed pet will help first responders react to distressed pets quickly and safely. Dr. Daniels has taught 6 classes so far, and is working toward training additional first responders.
Pasco County Fire Rescue has several sets of Pet Oxygen Masks that Dr. Daniels donated, and several from a rescue group. However, it is essential to obtain a set of masks for every fire truck and we need your help. Get more information HERE
