what if one of the residents is actually hurt beyond his basic first-aid capabilities? Considering these dogs take on the bulk of government services in the town I think it would make sense for them to recruit a dog with a proper medical degree.
Just thinking out loud here - while it's a good idea, for an ambulance to be useful wouldn't somebody have to get hurt? On this show people are always doing crazy things. But since it's a kids' cartoon you can't have people actually requiring medical attention as a result of those crazy things.
Right? Especially considering first aid would likely be the most common call.
The wife, daughter and I were just watching the Everest intro episode, and I though of that when Jake almost falls off the cliff - "OK Pups! Lets go out and find Jake's body! Skye, you fly overhead and see if you can spot his corpse. Once we find it, Zuma - you use your winch to pull the body off the cliffside. Chase - you set up a roadblock and prevent bystanders from seeing his putrid corpse!"
Yeah that's true. I've seen Marshall swing the back doors open on that vehicle to reveal a fully equipped ambulance. He often administers first aid, also.
