This study reports the efficacy of the vasodilator sodium nitroprusside (SNP), for treatment of acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema in dogs. For this study, the patients were divided into the SNP only treatment group, the SNP, furosemide and dobutamine treatment group, and non-SNP treatment group. Seven dogs, 6 dogs and 2 dogs were favorable responders in SNP only group, group with SNP, furosemide and dobutamine and non-SNP treatment group, each. The results of this study suggest that SNP can be an effective alternative therapy for dogs with acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate dogs' sociality toward human strangers in the absence of an owner by analyzing changes in dogs' behavior during a task of making eye contact with an experimenter to obtain snacks. A total of 17 dogs were divided into groups of high sociality (HS; n = 10, 4.4 ± 3.87 years) and low-sociality (LS; n = 7, 3.71 ± 2.06 years). A comparison of the average frequency of five behavioral types-fear-appeasement behaviors (P<0.001), sociability-related behaviors (P<0.001), stress-related behaviors (P<0.05), destruction (P < 0.001), and vocalization (P < 0.001)-between the groups showed a significant difference in all five categories. Together, these results suggest that dogs with high sociality are less exposed to various stresses and have a higher ability to adapt to new environments than dogs with low sociality. This can predict dogs' adaptability to a new environment and positive outcomes in their daily life with the owner.

Syringobulbia is a rare neurological disorder characterized by a fluid-filled cavity in the brainstem. In this study, clinical signs, features on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and the diseases present concurrently with syringobulbia were investigated in 33 small breed dogs. Most dogs (97%) had concurrent syringomyelia, and some dogs (24%) presented with vestibular or cranial nerve symptoms associated with the medulla oblongata. MRIs revealed slit-like, bulbous, and vertical linear shapes of the cavities on T2-weighted hyperintense and T1-weighted hypointense signals similar to the cerebrospinal fluid. Chiari-like malformations were identified in all dogs. This study highlights the association of syringobulbia with syringomyelia and Chiari-like malformations in small breed dogs with or without brainstem-associated clinical signs.

The bone alkaline phosphatase(BALP) in 130 sera of normal dogs were assayed according to the lectin precipitation method of Rosalki and Foo. The serum BALP activities showed a wide variation as $23.27({\pm}14.73)$ IU/L in young dogs from 6weeks to 12 months old and were lower in magnitude as $9.24({\pm}3.36)$ IU/L in elder dogs from 1 years to 6years old. The serum BALP activities in normal dogs were no significant correlation in sex.

현재 약 2,500여개가 넘는 경호업체들이 활동하고 있지만 이들 업체 중 상당수가 부실경영과 자본력의 압박, 인력관리 능력 부족 등으로 인하여 영세성을 면치 못하고 있다. 따라서 보다 과학적인 경호방법을 동원하고 경호대상자에 대한 양질의 서비스를 제공할 뿐만 아니라 사전 예방적인 수단을 강구하는 측면에서 경호탐지견 운용을 일반화 할 것이 요구되고 있다. 첫째, 경호탐지견으로 적합한 품종인 국내산 진도견, 삽살견 등을 경호탐지견으로 배양한다. 특히 우수한 품종의 진도견을 경호탐지견의 임무에 적합한 훈련을 통하여 적절히 운용한다면 우리 고유의 진도견을 산업화하고 보호육성하는 취지에도 맞아 떨어지는 효과를 얻을 수 있다. 둘째, 경호탐지견을 양성하고 훈련을 확대한다. 경호탐지견은 훈련방법에 따라서 2가지 이상의 임무를 수행할 수가 있다. 즉, 복종훈련을 마친 후 임무에 적합한 경계 또는 탐지 등 특수훈련을 실시하여 경호활동에 투입할 수가 있는 것이다. 셋째, 훈련된 경호탐지견을 임무에 맞게 운용한다. 경호탐지견은 대인경호, 시설경비, 폭발물 및 마약 탐지, 기타 맹인안내 등 다양한 경호대상자의 보호수단으로 운용할 수 있다. 넷째, 경호탐지견 운용 전문 인력을 양성하고 전문적인 경호탐지견 훈련센터를 운영하여야 한다. 경호탐지견 운용 요원을 양성하기 위해서는 대학(교)의 경호 관련학과에 "경호탐지견 운용론" 등의 교과목을 개설하고 경호탐지견의 품종을 개량하며, 경호탐지견훈련센터를 설치하여 임무에 적합한 훈련을 훈련지도사로 하여금 실시하게 하는 것이다.

본 연구는 전십자인대가 단열된 개의 슬관절액에서 tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) 와 cathepsin K의 변화를 알아봄으로서 십자인대에 관련된 질병 또는 십자인대 치료 실패에 따른 퇴행성관절염의의 조기 진단 및 치료에 관한 정보를 얻기 위하여 실시하였다. 실험동물로는 전방십자인대가 단열된 30두의 개와 정상 성견 8 두 그리고 어린 정상 개 9두를 사용하였다. 슬관절액 내의 TRAP 과 Cathepsin K의 변화를 확인하기 위하여 조직화학 염색과 면역조직화학염색을 실시하였다. 조직학적인 검사 결과 정상견에서는 TRAP과 Cathepsin K 세포들은 찾아보기 힘들었으나 전방십자인대가 단열된 개에 있어서는 TRAP 과 Cathepsin K 그리고 chondroid metaplasia가 중심부분에서 증가되고 있음을 관찰하였다. 이러한 결과로 보아 TRAP과 Cathepsin K 세포들은 전방십자인대가 단열 또는 단열 후 회복되는 과정에서 상호 보조적으로 관여하며 세포외 방출과 관계가 있는 것으로 생각된다.

To investigate the acute toxicity of adventitious roots extract derived from wild ginseng, it was orally administered to beagle dogs with a single dose. In acute toxicity test, three groups (9 beagle dogs of male) were administered with different dosages of adventitious roots extract (prepared by Biopia Corp.) 500 mg/kg (G2), 1,000 mg/kg (G3), 2,000 mg/kg (G4) and one group (G1, 2 beagle dogs of male) were received by only capsule without the extract according to the Regulation on Korea Food and Drug Administration (1999. 12. 22). There were vomitus for a time and mucous stool at the day, and anorexia and mucous stool at the first day in the group of 2,000 mg/kg administration. There were mucous stool in one and anorexia for a while in two beagle dogs at the first day in the 1,000 mg/kg administration. But no death or abnormal clinical sign was observed through the study period. Therefore, the adventitious roots extract derived from wild ginseng is considered not to have the acute toxicity in the beagle dogs. These results suggest that LD/sub 50/ value of the test substance was considered to be more than 2,000 mg/kg in the beagle dogs.

Abstract: This study was aimed to diagnose acid-base disorders of dogs with canine parvoviral enteritis (CPE) and data to establish a rational fluid therapy regimen for patients with CPE. A total of 43 dogs which had clinical signs of CPE and had detected canine parvovirus by polymerase chain reaction, were bled anaerobically from jugular vein at the time of admission. Blood chemical test, determination of electrolytes and blood gas analysis were conducted, and calculated values were obtained from each measured items. The values of blood chemical and electrolytes of dogs with CPE were various depending on the degree of clinical signs, and these tests were not specific to diagnose for CPE. Hypochloremia (20.9%), hyperchloremia (11.6%), hypokalemia (7.0%), hyperkalemia (11.6%), hyponatremia (9.3%) and hypernatremia (18.6%) were diagnosed as abnormalities of electrolytes from 43 dogs with CPE. The 29 out of 43 dogs (67.4%) were metabolic acidosis and 3 dogs (7.0%) were metabolic alkalosis. The acid-base status of 11 dogs out of 43 dogs (25.6%) was normal.

Anemia is a common problem in sick dogs, and immune-mediated hemolytic anemia (IMHA) is one of the most common causes of anemia in dogs. Since death can occur rapidly in dogs with IMHA even with appropriate treatment, it is important to differentiate IMHA from other causes of anemia in its first stages. To diagnose underlying diseases in anemic dogs and differentiate IMHA cases from others, 29 patient dogs suffering from severe anemia that had been referred to Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital at a National University from June 2004 to April 2005 were examined. The most common cause of anemia in the patient dogs was found to be liver disease accounting for 31.0% (9/29) of all, and the second most common was IMHA with 13.7% (4/29). Four dogs confirmed as IMHA cases all reacted positive to direct anti-globulin test and showed spherocytes and polychromatic erythrocytes in the blood smear. Most of the IMHA cases (3/4) were female aged 2 to 7 years and were in a severe state of anemia with less than 20% of PCV.
