Introduction to Diseases, Diagnosis, and Management of Dogs and Cats covers the diseases of dogs and cats and their remedial measure after drug application.

The book describes disease evaluation and its pathogenesis, identification of pathogens and their severity to animals, exhibition of disease manifestation, and preventive and treatment strategies to counteract the etiopathogenesis caused by several types of pathogens. The exhibitions of animal disease severity as well as clinical manifestation are also justified for microbial pathogen identification.

Finally, treatment regimes are evaluated to counteract diseases, with an emphasis on etiological factors, disease diagnosis and control measures.

Users will find this to be an idea reference on recent advancements in diseases that affect cats and dogs that also highlights the management of diseases in a well-structured fashion.
