Abstract

Since the dawn of mankind, humans have been closely associated with animals, over time, these animals have become members of the family, necessitating more specific health care. The Healthy Pet Extension Project aimed to bring clinical care in the area of Small Animal Clinic to the most needy communities in the municipality of Bom Jesus-PI. Visits were made to the communities to conduct consultations, to collect material for examinations and to provide guidelines on the promotion of animal health. In addition, banners and folders were made in public squares and free fairs and contained important information on the creation of dogs and cats. The population served by the students was satisfied with the attendance; in addition, the project was important for the students involved, because through it enabled an interaction of the theory learned in the course of the course with the practice exercised in the care. It is concluded that the extension project is of great importance for both the academic community and the population. With regard to students, it is possible to reconcile theory with practice, as well as obtaining experience mainly in the area of medical practice of dogs and cats, thus contributing to their professional future. As far as the population served hears guidelines and clarifications regarding responsible care, vaccination, food and general care with domestic animals.
