Originally created as ad advertisement for a training course. Has very little content that isn't already included in Veterinary medicine. What little salvageable content there is could be merged there. Prod was disputed. OhNoitsJamie Talk 23:23, 16 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. I deprodded as the rationale given was a merge, and that's still the case. Merging is not deletion. I also don't favour a merge having looked for sources. There are hundreds about the topic of first aid for pets, with "pet" and "first aid" in the title:[1], over 2400 hits for "Pet first aid", another 200 extra hits for "first aid for pets",[2] and about 30 books specifically on this topic:[3].

- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Ron Ritzman (talk) 02:20, 23 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- The article's current title suggests that its subject is a proper noun (in contrast to First aid). The content, however, doesn't. Frankly, I think veterinary medicine is in worse shape than this article, so I'll say weak keep. unsigned comment by User:Nosleep
