Features: The bond between dogs and humans dates back to ancient times. During the process of domesticating dogs, humans consciously engaged in genetic breeding selection, leading to the development of more distinctive breeds such as pet dogs, police dogs, meat dogs, and hunting dogs. This has made people increasingly concerned about the social relationship between dogs and humans. Dog Farm Veterinary Medicine was written in response to the needs of the times. Dog farms differ from large-scale poultry, pig, cattle, and sheep farms. Most dog farms are small, ranging from a few to dozens of dogs in family-style operations, while some are intensive farms with hundreds or even thousands of dogs. The former is more common, so such dog farms typically lack the resources or necessity to hire a full-time veterinarian. This necessitates dog owners relying on veterinary knowledge from this book. The purpose of this book is to serve the above-mentioned small and medium-sized dog farms. Starting with basic dog knowledge, it gradually introduces fundamental veterinary clinical characteristics, diagnostic techniques, prevention and control measures, and medication principles. The content is rich, practical, and easy to self-learn, enabling dog owners not only to become excellent operators but also to qualify as competent dog farm veterinarians. It is also an essential reference tool for readers to become dog farm veterinarians.
