Pets can get ill and suffer problems like people, and like us, they can be cured using alternative, circumstance and natural medicines. Whenever we travel with a pet to a n isolated region in which no veterinarians are to be found, no doctors, or anything similar or in between, care must be provided for our animals too; in other words, as much as you should learn and equip yourself for human first aid emergencies, you should do get acquainted with veterinary first aid procedures. This may well be a survival issue for animals participating in our adventures; we should never go out into the wilderness without taking their health into account as well as ours because domesticated animals have undergone adaptations thorough their civilised life in which they have certainly acquired new - mostly intelligent - traits, but also have lost other adaptations more proper of the life outdoors, in the middle of nature. Immunity to certain illnesses, skin resistance, digestive capabilities are things that may have changed in our pets as much as in us humans, and it would be a gross mistake to think that just because they are animals, they may do well in the backcountry. Thus, whenever you travel, carry a first aid kit for you, and another for your pet. For example, some domestic dogs that have a lot of log hairs between their paws' fingers, may suffer if exposed too long to ice and snow conditions because tiny bits of frozen water will stick to the hair and hurt their paws. So, you will have to provide them with booties or clean their paws regularly. You may think that this should not happen but remember: domestic dogs are highly sedentary in comparison to wild animals that in the first place, would not naturally have such long hair in their paws. Human feet are apt for walking bare in the middle of the jungle; still, if you are not accustomed to do so you should not even try. The same goes for our little and loyal friends. |
