Dog First Aid Kit
Be Ready For Anything: The Vet-Nurse Approved Dog First Aid Kit
No one wants to think about their dog getting hurt, but accidents happen in the blink of an eye. We founded Poorly Paws after being caught in a sudden emergency without a kit, and we vowed to make sure no other pet parent has to experience that feeling of helplessness.
Designed alongside Veterinary Nurses, the Poorly Paws First Aid Kit is a compact, lightweight, and waterproof essential that ensures you have the vital tools to provide immediate care - wherever adventure takes you.

Frequently asked questions
What is included in the first aid kit?
Every kit contains the essentials for dealing with common minor injuries on walks, hikes, holidays, and everyday adventures. This includes cleansing wipes, bandages, gauze, tape, tick tools, wound spray options, and protective items like gloves. Each kit is designed to be lightweight, compact, and easy to use outdoors.
Can I use the kit for any breed or size of dog?
Yes - all items are suitable for dogs of any breed or size. You may need to adjust how much bandage you use depending on your dog, but the contents are universally safe and practical.
Is this kit a replacement for seeing a vet?
No. The kit helps you manage minor injuries and stabilise situations until you can get professional advice. For anything serious or uncertain, always contact a vet. This is where our 24/7 veterinary support comes in useful - they will be able to tell you if this is a true emergency or if it's something you can handle yourself.
How do I use the items inside the kit?
Each kit includes clear guidance, and many items have step‑by‑step videos available through your QR code. If you subscribe to 247 veterinary support you can also speak to a vet at any time for real‑time instructions.
How long do the items last?
Most items have long shelf lives, but some (like saline pods or wipes) have expiry dates. You can purchase refills individually or as a full pack to keep your kit ready for emergencies.
Is the First Aid Kit Waterproof?
Yes — the travel kits are designed to handle rain, mud, and the general chaos of outdoor life. They’re splash‑proof and durable enough for backpacks, glove boxes, and bumbags.
What situations is the kit designed for?
Common scenarios include cuts, scrapes, torn dew claws, tick removal, minor burns, stings, and cleaning muddy or irritated paws. It’s built for real‑life dog ownership - beaches, woods, moors, fields, and everything in between.
Can I take the kit abroad?
Absolutely. Everything inside is travel‑safe and suitable for holidays, road trips, ferries, and flights (in checked luggage). It’s ideal for camping and hiking trips too.
About Poorly Paws
Poorly Paws began when our own dog, Luna, cut her paw on a walk and we had nothing suitable to help her. That moment inspired us to create a compact, waterproof dog first aid kit you can take anywhere — small enough for pockets, powerful enough for real‑life emergencies.
To make things even easier, we offer 24/7 veterinary triage for just £4.99 a month. It’s instant access to qualified professionals who can tell you whether your dog needs urgent care or simple at‑home treatment. It’s reassurance without the out‑of‑hours vet bill.
Together, the kit and subscription create a complete safety net: practical tools in your pocket, expert advice whenever you need it. Because when you love a dog, being prepared shouldn’t be complicated or expensive.
