RABIES. An incurable, viral disease that attacks the central nervous system of almost all mammals including humans.

If clipping is advisable, how often should an animal be clipped? Well, I would suggest, as often as you think your pet needs it or as often as you can afford it. Be guided by the same reasoning that you would use when you consider going to a barber or a hairdresser. Dogs may be clipped throughout the year without endangering their health. Ordinarily, dogs are clipped when they get too shaggy. Clipping not only improves the animal’s appearance, but it makes the hair easier to manage, is comforting to the animal and the lack of shedding will be a godsend to the housewife.

Animal dentistry consists essentially of cleaning teeth, extracting them, and treating the gums. These dental procedures are classified as minor operations and animals tolerate them very well. Often as many as fifteen to twenty teeth may be removed at a single sitting without apparent discomfort to the animal. This is due to the fact that infected teeth of dogs are usually so loose in their sockets that only the slightest pressure has to be exerted to remove them. The operations are performed under mild sedation or general anaesthesia.
