The Brazos Valley Equine Hospital in Navasota, Texas is pleased to host Dr. Rebecca Giminez and an Awareness level course in Technical Large Animal Emergency Rescue Training (TLAERT). This opportunity is sponsored in part by MWI Veterinary Supply AND PFIZER. TLAERT teaches emergency response to community members, including firefighters, rescue squads, law enforcement, animal control officers, and large animal veterinarians. Participants learn how to safely prepare for and approach large animal incidents such as trailer/livestock hauler accidents (including overturns), handleing large animals in open areas, mud rescues, and incidents where people might be trapped with the animals. We will also give instruction on the behavior of large animals in rescue situations, using what equipment your emergency department already owns to solve TLAER incidents, and how to interact with other resources that may already exist in your community to find an appropriate solution for large animal issues. This course has been approved for 16 hours of continuing education for Animal Control Officers and Veterinarians in the State of Texas.
