Usage of preposition 'a'
Vamos a rescatar a este perro. Deseo entender el uso de la preposición 'a' antes de la frase este perro en esta sentencia (oración o frase; sentencia es más legal, as in a court sentence). ¿Alguien puede/podría ayudarme?
Could someone correct the mistakes and explain to me, the usage of 'a' preceding este perro. Would that be the personal a?
Think of it this way: If there wasn't an A before "este perro", who would we be rescuing? "Vamos a rescatar este perro" isn't completely wrong. People will still understand you, but it flows better when you add the A. It indicates the object receiving the action.
Voy a llamar a Maria. (I'm going to call Maria.)
Voy a visitar a Juan. (I'm going to visit Juan.)
Vamos a jugar al campo. (We're going to play in the country.) Here "campo" is masculine, and the masc. form of A + EL = AL. We don't say "a el campo." We contract this two prepositions.
Espero que te ayude! Saludos!

Colocamos la preposición "a" para señalar a qué perro te refieres. Cuando pones "a" estas contestando la pregunta ¿A qué perro te refieres? respuesta: me refiero a este perro.
I´m going to try explainning this question in english. When you want say "We are going save save to this dog" you are answering to the question: Which dog do you want save? answer: I want to save to "a, in spanish" this dog.
