Acute Diarrhoea in Dogs: when to choose probiotics, prebiotics or antibiotics
Speaker: Caroline Mansfield
How many times do we feel obligated to “do something” when a dog presents with diarrhoea? Mostly, because the owners just want it to stop. What is safe to do? What is effective to use? This talk will discuss the main differentials to consider, when it is considered essential to intervene and most importantly how to intervene- giving the quickest results possible.
Time: 19:30 AEST [Sydney] | 21:30 NZST [Auckland]
Time: 05:30 EDT
Chronic Diarrhoea in Dogs: a practical approach
Speaker: Caroline Mansfield
Diarrhoea can be a common and frustrating condition for pet owners to manage. The GI tract is also a frustratingly hidden system that means investigation is difficult to do without invasive testing. Furthermore, histological assessment of the intestinal tract does not reflect functional changes. So, what do we do to ensure we get to an answer efficiently and economically? This talk will discuss potential causes, the current way we classify inflammatory bowel disease and give a practical and streamlined approach to your cases.
Time: 19:30 AEST [Sydney] | 21:30 NZST [Auckland]
Time: 05:30 EDT
