Animal Incident Report (AIR) Form and Pet Rescue Notice Form

Effective January 12th, 2011 the Wag’N O2 Fur Life Pet Oxygen Mask Kit will include:
3 different masks – 1 small, 1 medium and 1 large
3 Oxygen tubes – 1 for each individual mask (22 mm)
1 Wag’N O2 Fur Life Carry Bag
1 Wag’N CPR For Cats & Dogs Magnet
1 Laminated Instruction + ABCs For Cats & Dogs Diagram
1 Wag’N Leash
1 “Pet Oxygen Masks On Board” decal for display at the station
1 “Pet Oxygen Masks On Board” decal per kit for display on emergency vehicles
1 PowerPoint Presentation to train your personnel
1 “Pets Need Oxygen Too” Instructional DVD per order
* NEW* Two 3Part Carbonless Animal Incident Report (AIR) Forms for First Responders

* NEW* Pet Rescue Notice Forms (electronic format)

In other words the Wag’N CPR Magnet will be replaced by these new Forms.

Pet owners may not always be on scene when the rescue is made, may be overwhelmed or themselves be injured. Many scenarios will require the rescued pets and owners to be separated after the initial rescue. In most cases, following the initial application of oxygen, the animal will need transport to a veterinarian (just like we generally take a ride to the hospital after being rescued from a fire).

The 3Part AIR form lets responding units record animal rescue information.
- First Copy stays with emergency contact,
- Second copy goes to veterinarian,
- Third copy stays with first responders.

Information gathered includes but is not limited to:

Number of extricated animals,

On scene procedures,

Estimated time to exposure,

Name and address of facility animal being taken to and more.

ANIMAL INCIDENT REPORT (AIR) FORM

The veterinarian will have valuable documented information of the on-scene treatment provided to better follow-up on animal care.

Pet owners will have written documentation of what happened to their animals and where they are being taken to.

First responders records will allow departments to keep track of treatment provided for staff training and departmental records.

The Pet Rescue Notice form is a more simplified version that can be left by first responders on the scene following an animal rescue from a gas leak alarm, Carbon Monoxide (CO) Alarm and in some cases fire alarms when the owner is not present. The purpose again is help reunite pets and owners following the rescue.

* Sponsors & First Responders will be getting the Pet Rescue Notice form as a pdf link file in their electronic email receipt.
* Sponsors & First Responders will be getting two (2) free AIR forms per kit. More forms can be ordered online in packs of 25 and 50.

Click here to order additional AIR Forms now.
The use of these forms are optional and at the sole discretion of each department.

The AIR form was developed to complement the Wag’N O2 Fur Life Kit contents.

It is not to be confused for the Wag’N Rover Respond’R® Emergency Transport Form.

The Wag’N CPR Magnet has been replaced as the instructions somewhat duplicate the ones provided on the laminated instruction sheet (ABC Diagram). Should the sponsor or first responder unit wish to acquire the CPR magnet, the unit cost will be an additional $1.29 (proceeds going to O2 Fur Life Fellowship Fund).

Overall the cost of the O2 Fur Life Pet Oxygen Mask Kit remains at $65 + shipping.

O2 Fur Life – Pet Oxygen Mask Initiative Looking Back At 2010

WE PROMISED WE WOULD WAG THE WOOF IN 2010…AND WE DID!

159 kits were provided to 62 departments in 2009

1204 kits were provided to 544 departments in 2010!!!!

WAGN OUR TAILS OFF TO MAKE 2011 EVEN BETTER!

During 2009 we focused on awareness about the O2 Fur Life Program, securing more fund raising opportunities for departments and community groups that want to help by sponsoring local departments and most importantly, providing a support structure for the departments once they’ve acquired the kits. These successes were instrumental in achieving the goal we had set forth for 2010, namely getting more kits to more departments to help more pets across the continent. Lets look back at 2010:

- Wag’N Enterprises became an official North American Distributor for McCulloch Medical products.

- In October and November, Petplan pet insurance pledged to give a Wag’N pet oxygen mask kit to a fire or rescue department in need for every 100 pet rescue alerts downloaded from GoPetplan.com. Nearly 4,000 pet rescue alerts were created during this campaign, resulting in 40 donated pet oxygen mask kits. For full list see the December Blog Post here.

- Customers asked for media coverage for their donation/acquisition of the pet oxygen mask kits. Wag’N added free PR options to both the Sponsor and First Responder Online Order Pages. A product option was added asking customers if they are interested in speaking to the media regarding their sponsorship/acquisition. When customers answer YES to the request, a Media Release form is emailed to them. Upon completion and return of the said form, the Wag’N PR Team is now able to contact their local media to pitch the story to get coverage for their generous contribution/acquisition.

- Some customers still prefer to contact the media themselves. Upon request, Wag’N created a press release template. Click here to view.

- Customers asked for sample fund raising template forms. Wag’N issued and posted the following forms on the main O2 Fur Life Program Page (www.wagn4u.com/O2FurLife). See Main Fundraiser Form, Holiday Fundraiser Form and the National Fire Safety Month Fundraiser Form.

The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) estimated that there are around 30,165 fire departments in the U.S. (see fact sheet here). Given the data collected by Wag’N regarding donations made by both partner and non-partner pet oxygen mask providers, we estimate that since 2007 less than 1500 departments (not the same as stations) now carry pet oxygen mask kits in the USA. For Canada, our best estimates show that less than 150 of the 756 official fire departments carry roughly 309 of these full kits.

The US Census does not account for pets however the American Pet Product Association does. This non-for-profit group conducts its annual survey on pet ownership and industry trends.  According to their 2009/2010 National Pet Owners Survey, 62% of U.S. households own a pet, which equates to 71.4 millions homes…in the USA alone! That’s nearly  171.1 million (171,100,000) cats & dogs considered as pets. If we add reptile, horse/equine, small animal, and bird ownership to the most common cats and dogs, that’s 228.9 million (228,900,000) animals that could be rescued with the use of pet oxygen masks following a residential/office/barn fire.

So we still have some work on our hands!

Every success story inspires us to continue in the quest to provide every single fire station, ems & K9 unit in the United States and Canada with this animal saving apparatus.
