This article is about an older version of DF.

Dwarves use the Animal Caretaking skill to treat any injured pet assigned to them. This skill is used automatically.

This skill is bugged in the sense that some wounded animals with red wounds or organ damage may never recover, yet the dwarf with Animal Caretaking gains experience points. As a result a dwarf could become a legendary Caretaker without any real effort.
