Chihuahua, the Longest Lived Dog Breed
2008-03-11 12:07:00
Dogs have been selectively bred for thousands of years, sometimes by inbreeding dogs from the same ancestral lines, sometimes by mixing dogs from very different lines. The process continues today, resulting in a tremendous variety of dog breeds. Dog breeds are group of dogs, represented by a sufficient number of individuals to be interbred without forced inbreeding to stably transfer its specific characteristics over generations.Chihuahua is one of the longest lived breeds. There are very few health problems that exist and it is not uncommon to see Chihuahuas live to its late teens. Being aware of all breed related health problems from the day before you own your Chihuahua and you and your Chihuahuas will have a long and happy life together.The Chihuahua is also one of the most popular toy breeds because of its saucy personality and its devotion to its owner. This breed is usually reserved with strangers and can at times become jealous, but it is generally good with other dogs and p...

Hemorrhagic Septicemia
2008-02-15 12:17:00
Hemorrhagic septicemia (HS) is an acute pasteurellosis, caused by particular serotypes of Pasteurella multocida and manifested by an acute and highly fatal septicemia principally in cattle and water buffaloes; the latter are thought to be more susceptible. HS is seen infrequently in swine and even less commonly in sheep and goats. It has been reported in bison, camels, elephants, horses, and donkeys, and there is evidence of its occurrence in yak. An acute pasteurellosis indistinguishable from HS is seen infrequently in deer, elk, and probably other feral ruminants. Laboratory rabbits and mice are highly susceptible to experimental infection.HS is a major disease of cattle and water buffalo in Asia, Africa, and some countries of southern Europe and the Middle East. Although it may be seen at any time of year, the worst epidemics occur during the rainy season. It is most common in the river valleys and deltas of southeast Asia among buffaloes used in rice cultivation. The only true ...

Blue Tongue
2008-02-15 12:15:00
Bluetongue is an infectious, noncontagious arthropodborne viral disease primarily of domestic and wild ruminants. Infection with bluetongue virus is common worldwide but is usually subclinical or mild in most infected ruminants. Bluetongue is almost exclusively a disease of sheep, particularly the fine-wool and mutton breeds, although white-tailed deer ( Odocoileus virginianus ), and pronghorn ( Antilocapra americana ) and desert bighorn sheep ( Ovis canadensis ) may develop severe clinical disease in North America.Etiology and Transmission:Bluetongue virus is the type-species of the genus Orbivirus in the family Reoviridae. There are 24 serotypes worldwide, although not all serotypes exist in any one geographic area, eg, only 5 serotypes (2, 10, 11, 13, and 17) have been reported in the USA. Distribution throughout the world parallels the spatial and temporal distribution of vector species of Culicoides biting midges, which are the only significant natural transmitters of the...

Postweaning Multisystemic Wasting Syndrome
2008-02-15 12:13:00
Postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) of swine was identified in western Canada in 1991; however, retrospective studies from several countries indicate PMWS was present in the previous decade. PMWS is distributed worldwide and most swine-producing countries report variable prevalence of the disease. The primary manifestations are poor growth rate, ill thrift, and/or wasting. PMWS often occurs after weaning in pigs 4-14 wk old. The disease can also be seen in older pigs, particularly finishing pigs that weigh 45-70 kg. Morbidity is typically 5-20% among cohorts in the nursery or finishing stages. Mortality in swine that show signs of PMWS often is >50%. In addition to death loss, PMWS in finishing pigs may prevent, or substantially delay, affected pigs from reaching market weight, which can result in economic loss for the producer.Etiology and Pathogenesis:PMWS is a multifactorial disease in which porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is the necessary infectious agent. Circovi...

Hemagglutinating Encephalomyelitis
2008-02-15 12:12:00
This viral disease of young pigs characterized by vomiting, constipation, and anorexia results either in rapid death or chronic emaciation. Motor disorders due to acute encephalomyelitis (hemagglutinating encephalomyelitis) also may be seen during some outbreaks.Etiology, Epidemiology, and Pathogenesis:The causal coronavirus, hemagglutinating encephalomyelitis virus, is of a single antigenic type, and it grows in several types of porcine cell cultures, in which it causes syncytia. It agglutinates RBC of several animal species. Pigs are the only natural host. The virus is spread via aerosol.Infection appears to be widespread in North America, western Europe, and Australia. It usually remains subclinical. The virus is endemic in most breeding herds, and a herd immunity exists. Immune sows transfer maternal antibodies to their piglets, which are protected until they have developed an age resistance; thus, clinical outbreaks are rare. However, if the virus enters a susceptible herd with...

Useful Tips to Choose Tennis Racquet
2008-02-15 12:09:00
Tennis isn't always interesting and I've been wondering what makes for an exciting match. Firstly though, my history with tennis plays a part in my enjoyment of the game. Sports that I have never participated in are less interesting than those I have. Much of the male only sports like football (of all types) and cricket (though women do play this now) and motor sports, I have no interest in. Now I start to spend much money to buy some nice stuff at tennis store.There are dozens of factors to consider when buying a tennis racquet (but the important factor still your mens tennis shoes). It is difficult to know how to choose which sort of racquet you should use. The professionals bring about 5-10 racquets on court, maybe strung differently or all the same depending on the conditions of the day and the court surface.Racquets with larger head sizes give more power, a larger sweet spot, and are more secure for off center shots. So why would anyone want to use a racquet with a smaller he...

Round Heart Disease of Turkeys
2008-02-13 13:23:00
Spontaneous cardiomyopathy of young turkeys is characterized by sudden death due to cardiac arrest. It has been suggested that the condition should be called spontaneous cardiomyopathy to distinguish it from round heart disease of chickens, a different syndrome that is rarely recognized today.The exact etiology of spontaneous cardiomyopathy in turkeys is unknown. However, studies using furazolidone to produce dilated cardiomyopathy in turkeys have indicated altered membrane transport resulting in myocardial failure. Creatine kinase, glycolysis, glycogen, myofibril, Krebs cycle enzymes, fatty acid oxidation, and soluble proteins are all reduced. The calcium-transport ATPase activity of the sarcoplasmic reticulum is increased. This pattern of biochemical changes is consistent with ischemia playing a role in the pathogenesis of spontaneous cardiomyopathy in turkeys.While most deaths occur during the brooding period, the ratio of heart weight to body weight of affected birds is increase...

Chicken Anemia Virus Infection
2008-02-13 13:20:00
Chicken anemia virus (CAV), a 25 nm, nonenveloped, icosahedral virus with a single-stranded, circular DNA genome, is the only member of the genus Gyrovirus of the Circoviridae family. The genome codes for 3 viral proteins (VP). VP1 is the capsid protein, but VP2 may be needed as a scaffold protein to allow proper folding of VP1. VP3, or apoptin, is a nonstructural protein that induces apoptosis in infected cells. CAV infects only chickens, although antibodies have been detected in Japanese quail. The virus is present worldwide based on serology and virus isolation. The disease, chicken infectious anemia, has been described in most countries where chickens are raised commercially.Horizontal transmission of CAV is by the fecal-oral route and perhaps by the respiratory route. Vertical transmission occurs when seronegative hens become infected and continues until neutralizing antibodies develop. Chicks hatched from these eggs are viremic, and CAV can rapidly spread horizontally from the...

Flip Over Disease
2008-02-13 13:19:00
Flip-over disease has been reported in most areas of the world that intensively raise broilers. Young, healthy, fast-growing broiler chickens die suddenly with a short, terminal, wing-beating convulsion. Many affected broilers just “flip over” and die on their backs; 60-80% are males. The condition is uncommon or unrecognized when low-density feed is used and the ratio of feed intake to weight gain is >2.5 at 6 wk, or when broilers take 8 wk to reach 2 kg.The cause is unknown but probably is a metabolic disease related to carbohydrate metabolism, cell membrane integrity, and intracellular electrolyte balance. Death may result from ventricular fibrillation. The modern broiler tends to overeat and continues to grow rapidly while maintaining a low feed-to-gain ratio. Flip-over appears to be related to high carbohydrate intake. It is not known whether a genetic predisposition exists.Broilers show no premonitory signs. They appear healthy and may be feeding, sparring, walking, or res...

Fatty Liver Syndrome
2008-02-13 13:18:00
Fatty liver syndrome was first described in the 1950s as excessive fat in the liver associated with varying degress of hemorrhage. The condition is almost universally confined to caged birds fed high-energy diets, and is most often seen in summer months. The liver is usually enlarged, yellow or putty colored, and very friable. The abdominal cavity contains large amounts of fat. Fatty liver syndrome without excessive body fat is thought to be associated with mycotoxins (eg, aflatoxins) in feed. he affected birds may also have pale combs. The ovary is usually active and the metabolic and physical stress associated with oviposition may be factors that induce the fatal hemorrhage, although mortality generally is Because fatty liver syndrome seems to occur only when birds are in a positive energy balance, the monitoring of body weight is a good diagnostic tool. Through force-feeding techniques, it has been shown that fatty liver syndrome is caused by an oversupply of energy rather than b...

Dorsal Displacement of the Soft Palate
2008-02-10 13:15:00
Dorsal displacement of the soft palate (DDSP) is a performance-limiting condition of the upper respiratory tract, and is a relatively common cause of upper respiratory noise during exercise. During DDSP, the caudal free margin of the soft palate moves dorsal to the epiglottis, creating a functional obstruction within the airway. The cross-sectional area of the pharynx is reduced, and airflow resistance and turbulence are increased.DDSP may result from several pathophysiologic mechanisms. Inflammation of the upper respiratory tract due to infection may cause neuropathy of the pharyngeal branch of the vagus nerve as it traverses the floor of the medial compartment of the guttural pouch, resulting in neuromuscular dysfunction of the pharyngeal muscles that control the soft palate. The retropharyngeal lymph nodes are in direct contact with the pharyngeal branch of the vagus nerve, and retropharyngeal lymphadenopathy may result in compression and irritation. Clinical signs can be induced...

Pharyngeal Lymphoid Hyperplasia
2008-02-10 13:14:00
Pharyngeal lymphoid hyperplasia (PLH) is a common condition of the dorsal pharyngeal wall observed in young horses (1-3 yr old). Horses do not have discrete masses of lymphoid tonsillar tissue; rather, they have many small foci or follicles of lymphoid tissue spread diffusely over the roof and lateral walls of the pharynx. In mature horses, these follicles blend with mucosal tissue and are unnoticeable. In young, maturing horses, lymphoid follicles appear as prominent, raised nodules on the surface of the pharyngeal roof and extend down the lateral walls of the pharynx and cranially into the nasopharynx. While PLH was once believed to be an important cause of poor performance in racehorses, its clincal significance is now questionable. Virtually all young horses undergo hyperplasia of pharyngeal lymphoid follicles; in most cases, this represents a normal immunologic event.Occasionally, follicles may enlarge and coalesce with surrounding follicles. In these situations, follicles may ...

Diseases of the Nasal Septum
2008-02-10 13:11:00
Diseases of the nasal septum are rare. Most nasal septal disorders are congenital abnormalities that remain undetected until the horse is exercised. Traumatic injury to the bridge of the nose as a juvenile can produce nasal septal deviation and thickening. Other less common diseases of the nasal septum include amyloidosis, fungal infection, and squamous cell carcinoma.Thickening or deviation of the nasal septum causes low-pitched stertorous breathing during exercise. Facial deformity may be observed. Septal abnormalities may be detected by palpation, visual inspection, and endoscopic examination. Dimensions of the nasal cavity are difficult to appreciate via endoscopic examination; however, abnormalities of the mucosa are easily identified. Precise dorsoventral radiographs of the skull provide definitive evidence of septal deformity, deviation, and thickening. Histologic examination of any nodules or discrete lesions on the septum will identify tumors, amyloidosis, or fungal infecti...

Health management Interaction in Small Animals
2008-02-10 07:15:00
Proper management to prevent and control disease has historically been a higher priority in large animal medicine than in small animal medicine. However, appropriate management is just as important for small animals, whether their environment is that of a single or multiple-pet home or a more intensive housing situation such as a kennel or cattery.Responsible pet ownership must be emphasized to all those owning and considering owning pets. Areas of client education that should be emphasized include the following:routine care and grooming, preventive health care, parasite control, nutrition, household hazards, housing requirements and environmental factors.Routine care and grooming not only help maintain pet health but also allow identification of health problems early in the course of disease. Close observation of pets allows for evaluation of changes in appetite, thirst, urination, defecation, ambulation, and general behavior. Any changes may suggest the need for a more thorough ex...

Eosinophilic Granuloma Complex
2008-01-30 17:08:00
The etiology of this group of diseases that affects cats, dogs, and horses has focused on an underlying hypersensitivity reaction. This is particularly true in cats and horses. Insect, environmental, and dietary hypersensitivities have been documented in cats, while insect hypersensitivity has been seen in some equine cases and in a smaller number of canine cases. Genetic predisposition and bacterial infections have also been seen in cats. In all species, idiopathic cases exist.Clinical Findings and Diagnosis:In cats, 3 disease entities have been grouped in the complex.Eosinophilic Ulcer:This well-circumscribed, erythematous, ulcerative lesion, usually not painful or pruritic, is usually found on the upper lip. Although reported to occur, progression to squamous cell carcinoma is extremely rare. Histology shows an ulcerative dermatitis, with a cellular infiltrate of neutrophils, plasma cells, and mononuclear cells predominating. Mild to moderate fibroplasia is common. Tissue or peri...

Fleas and Flea Allergy Dermatitis
2008-01-30 17:07:00
There are >2,200 species of fleas recognized worldwide. In North America, only a few species commonly infest dogs and cats: Ctenocephalides felis (the cat flea), C canis (the dog flea), Pulex simulans (a flea of small mammals), and Echidnophaga gallinacea (the poultry sticktight flea). However, by far the most prevalent flea on dogs and cats is C felis . Cat fleas cause severe irritation in animals and humans and are responsible for flea allergy dermatitis. They also serve as the vector of typhus-like rickettsiae and Bartonella sp , and are the intermediate host for filarid and cestode parasites. Cat fleas have been found to infest >50 different mammalian and avian hosts throughout the world. In North America, the most commonly infested hosts are domestic and wild canids, domestic and wild felids, raccoons, opossums, ferrets, and domestic rabbits.Cat fleas deposit their eggs in the pelage of their host. The eggs are pearly white, oval with rounded ends, and 0.5 mm long. Th...

Definition of Q Fever
2008-01-30 17:05:00
Q fever is a zoonotic bacterial infection associated primarily with parturient ruminants, although domestic animals such as cats and a variety of wild animals have also been associated with human infections. Q fever occurs more frequently in persons with occupational contact with high-risk species. Q fever has a highly variable clinical presentation in humans, ranging from a self-limiting influenza-like illness to pneumonia, hepatitis, and endocarditis. It is highly infectious, and a single organism can reportedly cause infection via the aerosol route in humans. Q fever is considered a potential agent of bioterrorism due to its high rate of infectivity, stability in the environment, and potential for aerosol dispersion.Etiology, Epidemiology, and Transmission:Q fever is caused by the gram-negative coccobacillus Coxiella burnetii . Although classically considered a rickettsial agent, recent phylogenetic analyses suggest that C burnetii is more closely related to Legionella and Franci...

Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP)
2008-01-30 17:04:00
Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP), caused by a feline coronavirus, is seen worldwide. Although a large number of cats may be infected with the feline coronavirus, only a few develop clinical FIP. The disease is progressive and may manifest clinically as a continuum between the effusive (serositis or wet) and noneffusive (granulomatous or dry) forms. A distinct clinical form of noneffusive FIP affecting only the eyes or brain (or both) may be seen. Mortality, even with therapy, approaches 100%. Although primarily a disease of domestic cats, FIP has been recognized in exotic Felidae, including the large and small wild cats. Among larger cats, FIP is seen in lions, leopards, jaguars, mountain lions, and especially cheetahs. Smaller cats susceptible to FIP include the sand cat, lynx, caracal, and pallas cat.Etiology:Field strains of feline coronavirus vary in their ability to induce FIP. Some isolates cause FIP (feline infectious peritonitis virus [FIPV]); others cause more localized ...

Definition of Zoonoses
2008-01-30 17:01:00
The emergence and reemergence of zoonotic diseases present challenges not only to veterinarians, but also to all professions concerned with public health. Since the 19th century, the veterinary profession in the USA has been at the forefront of control and eradication of animal diseases, including bovine pleuropneumonia, foot-and-mouth disease, Texas fever, bovine tuberculosis, brucellosis, vesicular exanthema, and classical swine fever.The early cooperation of veterinarians and public health physicians gave impetus to the eradication of bovine tuberculosis first in Denmark, Sweden, Finland, and Norway and then in the USA and Canada. Unfortunately, bovine tuberculosis has emerged in Mexico along the border with the USA and has caused human disease and dairy cow infections from California to Texas. Bovine tuberculosis and brucellosis remain major problems in the developing world.People with acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) are much more susceptible, in general, to zoonotic ...
