The AFCD runs a programme for promoting respect and care for animals. It uses a broad range of communication tools to drive home the message. These include posters, radio and television announcements, press releases and exhibitions. An animal health workshop was held in September 2010 to mark World Rabies Day. Overseas animal experts were invited to the event. Nine roving exhibitions were held during the year to promote responsible pet ownership and rabies prevention.

The experience the AFCD gained from organising the Olympic and Paralympic Equestrian Events in Hong Kong in 2008, enabled it to render the service.
