Talk:Pet first aid

Notability
I'm not sure whether this really warrants its own article. If anyone else thinks this is worthy of deletion but isn't sure, I would recommend nominating it. Greggers ( t &bull; c) 14:53, 7 January 2009 (UTC)


 * It seems to me that a better approach would be to improve the article, not delete it. --DThomsen8 (talk) 00:46, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

Pet Tech
I am new to wikipedia editing, but I would very much like to help contribute to this article. Firstly, though, I would need to declare that I am a Pet Tech Pet First Aid & CPR instructor. That said, Pet Tech is widely considered to be the most highly-regarded course in Pet First Aid & CPR, and is the only course recognised by Pet Sitters International for accreditation. The Red Cross classes are not recognised for accreditation because they are not considered to be as comprehensive. Pet Tech certification is now being used in many US cities for their animal control officers and firefighters as well. Anyway, please let me know if you think it is appropriate for me to add an external link to Pet Tech, and/or further information on this subject.RealFarkinMcCoy (talk) 10:03, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Hi. Welcome :)
 * The first thing, which you've done perfectly, is to declare your potential conflict-of-interest. See Suggestions for COI compliance for further suggestions.
 * The main thing that would be needed for an in-article mention, is a reliable source or two. I'll let you look through those pages, and those linked on your talkpage, before deluging you in more. :)
 * I did a brief bit of searching for Pet Tech and Pet Sitters International, but could only find non-reliable/promotional pages, eg this page, and this PSI page which states that they do accredit Red Cross and St. John Ambulance courses. Either their page, or your info, is outofdate? Hope that helps. :) -- Quiddity (talk) 21:30, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
