There is an App for everything right? Yes there is and one is a PetTech Pet Saver App for the iPhone and iPod Touch, and Android is here and it's only $4.99. While not a replacement for your Vet or a Vet Tech, this app covers things like what to do in emergency situations, heat stroke, snake bites, CPR, choking, shock, bleeding protocols, how to restrain and muzzle, how to transport an injured pet, the snout-to-tail assessment and more with instruction and video.
Another must have tool is a Pet First Aid Kit. We have one in our car and another in our house. We like the Wag 'n Enterprises first aid kits. They come in two sizes (Well Fed and Skinny) and a portion of their sales goes to donating specially made Pet Oxygen Masks (02 Fur Life®) to Fire Departments. In the interest of full disclosure, Wag'N Enterprises is a friend of ours located right here in Herndon, VA.

It's important to never forget your kit. Adapt it for what YOU and YOUR pets need.
We use a two sided tackle box. One side has all of the "perishable" goods in it. Like Aspirin, anitbiotic creams, eye wash etc. The other has things like bandaids, gauze, scissors, GOOD tweezers. It's been a life savor.
Keep a couple of boots, in case of foot injury, a spare collar and leash in your kit. Vet wrap is a must and is useful for many things beyond it's intended use. More than you need is always better than less than you need.
When i purchased my vehicle, I told them i would only buy it if they uncluded the first aid kit that was sold seperately. they gladly agreed, i added that self stick rolled gauze used by vets, a leash, collar, even a silver blanket that generates heat, and a sample of food from the vet.Everynyear i happily throw out the expired items and replace withnew ointmemts, etc. I have my cpr mask too.
