00:00.040 --> 00:02.390
The purpose of this training is to

00:02.400 --> 00:04.344
ultimately get the people that are

00:04.344 --> 00:06.790
going to see military working dogs more

00:06.790 --> 00:09.012
proficient at providing that first line

00:09.012 --> 00:11.440
care . We know that veterinarians

00:11.450 --> 00:13.450
aren't going to be there when a dog

00:13.450 --> 00:15.506
gets injured , so we're going to use

00:15.506 --> 00:17.617
the people that are on the front line

00:17.617 --> 00:19.617
at the point of injury to help them

00:19.617 --> 00:21.839
understand the skills that they need to

00:21.839 --> 00:24.061
save a dog's life , the skills that the

00:24.061 --> 00:26.283
participants are learning to , they can

00:26.283 --> 00:28.394
take them back to their own units and

00:28.394 --> 00:30.617
teach their fellow veterinary personnel

00:30.617 --> 00:32.728
and medics to help save these dogs on

00:32.728 --> 00:35.061
the battlefield . If any injuries occur ,

00:35.340 --> 00:37.507
we want to take what the human teacher

00:37.507 --> 00:39.970
policy programs have created and turn

00:39.970 --> 00:41.850
that into a veterinary product .

00:41.860 --> 00:43.860
Because military working dogs are a

00:43.860 --> 00:46.138
force multiplier , there's no question .

00:46.138 --> 00:48.193
And so we want to take care of these

00:48.193 --> 00:49.560
guys who are soldiers , just like us .
