Veterinary medicine is integral to public health, agriculture, and food security, safeguarding human and animal health. The rise in pet ownership and the millions of animals housed in shelters annually underscore the critical need for effective infectious disease management. Stray animals, particularly dogs, present significant risks of zoonotic disease transmission. Additionally, the close bond between humans and pets amplifies the importance of disease prevention, especially in shelters where animals live in close quarters, increasing the likelihood of outbreaks.
Infectious Disease Management in Animal Shelters provides a comprehensive guide to addressing these challenges. It offers practical, evidence-based strategies for preventing, managing, and treating infectious diseases in shelters. Organized into nine chapters, the book explores a wide range of diseases affecting dogs, cats, birds, rodents, rabbits, ferrets, and guinea pigs, delivering actionable insights into their causes, symptoms, treatments, and prevention.
The book begins by examining the types and causes of infectious diseases commonly found in shelters, emphasizing early detection and preventive strategies. Specific chapters cover dermatological diseases, feline respiratory illnesses, avian infections, and zoonotic risks, with a focus on vaccination protocols and biosecurity measures. Specialized sections address challenges in managing small mammals and the unique requirements for various species in shelter environments.
This resource bridges scientific research and practical application, equipping veterinarians, shelter workers, and policymakers with tools to enhance animal welfare and public health. By detailing methods to identify, treat, and prevent infectious diseases, the book promotes better management practices, helping mitigate the risks associated with shelter environments. Its focus on practical, adaptable solutions makes it essential for improving the health and well-being of animals in shelters and the communities they impact.
