About Pet Tech CPR Day / Pet Tech CPR & First Aid classes

Pet Tech uses “CPR Day” for pet CPR and first-aid training classes rather than for one fixed annual calendar observance. Its official CPR Day page lists class formats and current event dates by location.

Because instructors schedule classes on different dates, the date must be checked from Pet Tech’s current class listings for the location and year you need.

Why Pet Tech CPR Day / Pet Tech CPR & First Aid classes matters

The program is designed to teach pet parents and pet-care professionals practical emergency-preparedness skills for dogs and cats.

It is an organizer-led training program, not a government public holiday. A class listing should not be converted into a universal annual “Pet Tech CPR Day” date.

History of Pet Tech CPR Day / Pet Tech CPR & First Aid classes

Pet Tech describes itself as an international training center dedicated to CPR, first aid and care for dogs and cats and says it has taught these skills for more than two decades.

Pet Tech identifies Thom Somes as its president and co-founder, but the reviewed sources do not establish a single first “CPR Day” class or one recurring annual launch date.

Current Pet Tech pages show CPR Day and Pet Tech CPR & First Aid classes on different dates, confirming that the program is scheduled by edition and location rather than by one fixed annual rule.
