Good app but...I shared to a Facebook group, but after that I can Only share to Facebook groups i can't share to my own wall or other opinions, no choices come up anymore just fb groups please fix then 5 stars

🐈 A great guide for cat and dog basic first aid! 🐕 While not a replacement for proper veterinary care, this app is very well done and easy to follow, full of useful info for dealing with a large variety of problems pet owners might face - with not just facts, but also videos to guide you in performing emergency first aid properly. It even has a place to put your vet's emergency contact number for quick reference, and quizzes so you can test yourself on what you've learned. Highly recommended!
