Abstract
Disorders in a beagle breeding colony were discussed, based on 472 clinical charts made in 1974-1983. In 201 neonates less than a week old, hypothermia associated with pneumonia was mostly seen. In 31 puppies from one week to two months old and in 46 young dogs from two months to a year old, pneumonia, canine parvovirus infection, dermal abscess and dermatosis were mostly found. In 91 dogs aged from one to five, trauma, intervertebral disc protrusion, dermal abscess, dystocia, claudication and othematoma were frequently noted. In 103 animals over five years old, intervertebral disc protrusion, tumors, abscess, trauma and othematoma were observed most often.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
