Veterinary Nurse, Vanessa Warren, talks us through some inexpensive items that would be suitable for you to keep at home in a canine 'home first aid kit'. With just a little forethought you can be prepared for any cuts, grazes, wounds, bee and wasp stings that your dog may get.

Schools, shops, churches and leisure centres all have first aid kits for humans. Most people will probably have a box for themselves at home with plasters, wipes and maybe some bandages, but where do we go for first aid for our pets while we are waiting to get to a vet?
