Dogs and All about Them

Treatment--This
consists
firstly
in
doing
all
in
our
power
to
guide
the
specific
catarrhal
fever
to
a
safe
termination;
and,
secondly,
in
watching
for
and
combating
complications.
Whenever
we
see
a
young
dog
ailing,
losing
appetite,
exhibiting
catarrhal
symptoms,
and
getting
thin,
with
a
rise
in
temperature,
we
should
not
lose
an
hour.
If
he
be
an
indoor
dog,
find
him
a
good
bed
in
a
clean,
well-ventilated
apartment,
free
from
lumber
and
free
from
dirt.
If
it
be
summer,
have
all
the
windows
out
or
opened;
if
winter,
a
little
fire
will
be
necessary,
but
have
half
the
window
opened
at
the
same
time;
only
take
precautions
against
his
lying
in
a
draught.
Fresh
air
in
cases
of
distemper,
and,
indeed,
in
fevers
of
all
kinds,
cannot
be
too
highly
extolled.
The
more
rest
the
dog
has
the
better;
he
must
be
kept
free
from
excitement,
and
care
must
be
taken
to
guard
him
against
cold
and
wet
when
he
goes
out
of
doors
to
obey
the
calls
of
Nature.
The
most
perfect
cleanliness
must
be
enjoined,
and
disinfectants
used,
such
as
permanganate
of
potash,
carbolic
acid,
Pearson's,
or
Izal.
If
the
sick
dog,
on
the
other
hand,
be
one
of
a
kennel
of
dogs,
then
quarantine
must
be
adopted.
The
hospital
should
be
quite
removed
from
the
vicinity
of
all
other
dogs,
and
as
soon
as
the
animal
is
taken
from
the
kennel
the
latter
should
be
thoroughly
cleansed
and
disinfected,
and
the
other
dogs
kept
warm
and
dry,
well
fed,
and
moderately
exercised.
