BSAVA Manual of Canine and Feline Shelter Medicine - Principles of Health and Welfare in a Multi-animal Environment
Edited by: Rachel Dean, Margaret Roberts, Jenny Stavisky
This brand new manual provides a practical guide on how to deal with various clinical situations that arise when working with cats and dogs in a shelter environment.
The first section describes some of the unique challenges of dealing with non-owned cats and dogs in a multi-animal environment. These challenges are clinical, as they require the clinician to apply a more 'herd health' pragmatic approach compared to everyday small animal practice. The second section of the book provides a practical approach to disease control, population control and infection control, with a pragmatic approach (e.g. Don’t do all the tests). The third section will provide information about people working in the shelter environment, charities and their policies, laws concerning stray dogs and cats, the shelter veterinary team and training and education courses.
This manual will not be a list of conditions/infectious agents, their diagnosis and treatment - it will offer the perspective of the clinical presentation and will incorporate the principles of evidence-based veterinary medicine at all appropriate points.
The manual is aimed at general first-opinion practitioners who may do a small or large amount of work in multi-animal environments; however, many of the principles will apply to case management of individual patients in practice. The book will also appeal to vets who work in the shelter/charity sectors and to students interested in this field of veterinary medicine.
