The project was greeted with enthusiasm by students and teachers, and interest in them, ardor children and how they interacted with us during presentations, we were very happy.

The fact that most children have pets at home to radically influenced their interest in the topics presented to us.

Educational goals of the project were:

•  Developing responsibility of students and citizens in general in regard to the holding of a pet that is not only fun and play, but also a great responsibility;

•  Improving awareness and civic culture;

•  The importance of public safety and public health in Romania;

Thus, students were informed of where to buy / adopt a pet, you need to consider before opting for a breed of dog, you should consult a veterinarian, how to care for pets and what responsibilities they have when owning a pet, both in terms of veterinary and administrative point of view. I also stressed the obligations they have during the walk dogs.

Another purpose of this presentation was to inform students about rabies. Our doctor veterinary presented risks they are exposed to both children and adults. The students learned how to identify the signs of a carrier animal rabies, how to protect against infection and binding measures in exceptional cases.

 In addition to these topics, we addressed the obligation of microchipping and registration of all dogs and the vaccination against rabies in dogs and cats. It was explained to students the benefits of optical marking animals owner and measures indicated for finding such an animal.

We were pleased to see that the optical medallions and  R.E.A.D.C cards have been recognized by students, and that they already knew the benefits of these services in the recovery of lost puppies. This demonstrates once again the success of previous campaigns in the first phase of our project, which took place in the municipality of Campia Turzii.
