Small Animal Clinical Nutrition

Customer Reviews:

An almost overwhelming amount of information.......2006-05-01

If you are one of those people that want to be able to find answers to questions on your own, no matter how technical, this is a good book for you.

First, this review is being written from the perspective of a pet owner, NOT a veterinarian. I do have 20 years experience interacting with human clinicians (doctor, pharmacists, nurses, etc.) so I am familiar with more medical jargon than most people. However, I believe that a motivated student could gain a lot of knowledge from this book. I have used it much more than I anticipated since I got it.

The book covers the following animals:
Dogs
Cates
Small Mammals (Ferrets, Rabbits and Rodents)
Reptiles
Birds

However, the majority of the focus of the book is on dogs and cats.

There is an entire chapter dedicated to homemade pet food and all the considerations that are required if you are going to undertake such an endeavor. There is far more to it than I realized to make certain that your animal is getting all the nutrients that they require for good health.

The book covers a lot of simple information like how many calories to feed an animal varied by age and activity level.

There are entire chapters dedicated to Nutritional Management of Animals that are experiencing health problems, these are:

Hospitalized patients
Obesity
Adverse Reactions to Food
Skin and Hair Disorders
Dental Disease
Orthopedic Disease in Dogs
Cardiovascular Disease
Renal Disease
Canine Urolithiasis
Feline Lower Urinary Tract Disease
Gastrointestinal and Exocrine Pancreatic Disease
Hepatobiliary Disease
Endocrine and Lipid Disorders
Cancers
Fatty Acids in Inflammatory Disease
Dietary Effects on Drug Metabolism

If you have a question about nutrition for your dog or cat, the answer is undoubtedly in this book somewhere. If you aren't familiar with medical terminology and don't want to be, this might not be the best book for you. However, if you are a motivated student, you can gain a lot from this book even without a current knowledge of medical terminology. I highly recommend this book to animal lovers that want to make the best nutritional choices for the furry members of their family.

Very technical but very useful........2002-04-07

The 4th edition of Small Animal Clinical Nutrition is significantly different from the first 3 editions -- expanded, more information, different editors, different organization, etc.

Much of this volume is more technical than the average reader wants or needs. It is a textbook used in veterinary schools. But a dedicated reader could gain much from it. Even the average reader could benefit from the chapters on commerical pet foods and on home prepared diets.

Contributions.......2000-05-20

Is good to see this book is not just written by nutriologist, there is an important contribution of clinicians dedicated to specific areas.

Life lessons? Romance? Literary instruction? Go, Dog. Go! offers all this and more, wrapped up in one simply worded, warmly hued package. Using single-syllable words in rhythmic repetition, and introducing colors and prepositions, this Seuss-styled classic has been an early favorite of children since 1961. For those looking for deeper meaning in a beginning reader book, here you'll find nothing less than a microcosm of life. Green dogs, yellow dogs, big dogs, little dogs. Dogs who prefer cars, dogs who favor skis. All represent the diversity a child will find in the world. And the slow-to-bud romance between the cheerfully oblivious yellow dog and the mincing pink poodle explains more succinctly than most self-help books what goes on in many grown-up relationships. Nonetheless, Eastman takes the concept of "primary" to heart, with his simple silly phrases and solidly colored illustrations. Not only will this book inspire peals of laughter in kids, it will also help them make the magical connection between those mysterious black squiggles on the page, and the words they hear and speak. (Ages 4 to 8)

Book Description

Illus. in full color. Many kinds of dogs in a variety of fun-filled activities.

Shelley's Dad.......2007-09-16

This is an excellent childrens' books. The pictures keep the child interested while the repetition helps them as they learn to talk and read. I like all of the P.D. Eastman books that I have read.

So much fun!.......2007-07-18

This is such a fun read! The illustrations are great. This is one of my son's favorite books. It teaches children colors and opposites. Out of the blue he will say to me, "Do you like my hat?" Then we play the hat game for awhile! I highly recommend this book.

Go go go go GOOOO! (my daughter's words).......2007-07-08

I started showing this book to my daughter when she was 16 months old.
It is her absolute favorite (and she has about 30 books). She throws the book at me and shoves it in my face at least 4x per day.

She loves pointing to all the dogs while I tell her the color of each.
She is obsessed with bikes, so the dogs riding bikes really get her excited. She is now almost 18 months old, and she now understands that the sun is hot, and can say the word "hat, car, stop, and tree" from the repeated readings of the book.

There are so many things that this book teaches...colors, stop and go, up/over/under/in/out/around, day/night.....It was my absolute favorite beginner book as a small child too, and I am 40 now.

Great Classic.......2007-05-18

Love, love, love this book. A great classic and one of my childhood favorites that I can share with my little 19-month-old daughter.

GO, DOG. GO !!.......2007-05-07

My little grandson is 6 years old and was experiencing some trouble with his reading in first grade. My Mother-in Law in the Chicago Suburbs told me that she read this book to all four of her children when they were having difficulty reading years ago, along with all of the Dr. Suess books as well...
All of her children turned out to be Professionals, one is a Bi-lingual teacher,then there's a Physical Therapist amd a Professor of Language Arts at a nearby University and one became an Executive for a very large Auto Manufacturing Company for 30 yrs. So, I ordered the "Go, Dog. Go !" book for him.
He was so excited to get his own package in the mail, that we sat down on the couch immediately and he read the whole book to me, all 62 pages of it !!! He just had a few little problems with the "wh" and the "th" words, otherwise he did fantastic !! Since then, his reading in school has improved greatly, and his teacher and parents are thrilled. So am I !! He understood the underlying humor in the book, and looked forward to every next page.

Thanks for a great price too !! Jan Jimenez, Danbury, CT.

The Whelping and Rearing of Puppies: A Complete and Practical Guide.......2007-08-15

Being a first time breeder; this book was FANTASTIC!! Was extremely practical & helped to have on hand to look at as a reference. I recommend this book to any one like me, a first time breeder. Out of the 2 books I purchased, this was the BEST!! 2 thumbs up..

Great book!.......2007-06-17

I am a first time breeder, and I bought a few whelping books to help me out.
I have to say this is the best book I have read on the subject.
It is very detailed and helps you plan on what may happen.
I would recommend this to anyone who is thinking about breeding there dog.

Fast Service.......2007-05-13

The company provided fast service. The book has been educational and we will be able to use the practical information when we finally start breeding our Danes.

survived 12 puppies!.......2007-04-12

This is an excellent book. Simple, to the point, and in layman's terms that can be easily understood. I am a veterinarian and I've had a lot of personal experience whelping and rearing puppies. But it was wonderful to have this book to turn to while raising my most recent litter of 12 puppies. It was reassuring to verify what I was doing correctly and helpful to be reminded of things that I should be doing.

New to whelping? This is very practical advice........2007-02-19

I work rescue and never had puppies born in my home before last September.
This book covers it all, and is easy and clear to understand.

The most used book on my shelf.......2005-10-17

Whenever I encounter a new disease, or need to refresh my memory about one I haven't seen lately, I reach for this book first. I find it to be concise, informative, and useful. While other medical texts make for good fireside or bedtime reading, this one cuts to the chase, and is useful in the midst of a busy veterinary schedule.
I use this book as my "nerd book", jotting notes in the margins when I learn something new about a disease from reading journals. Overall I am quite impressed at how up-to-date and complete the information is vis-a-vis JAVMA, the Compendium for Continuing Education, etc. I also appreciate that this book comes out in new additions often enough to keep up with the rapid changes in veterinary medicine.

must be on a vets library.......2005-09-29

very helpful in learning details about diseases and drugs we use.Easy to use the book and easy to understand.Thank you for the opportunity for me to receive this book to Turkey.

Great Resource.......2004-01-27

I got this book a couple of years ago on the advice of my mentor. This book has really helped me out in school(esp. in my Problem-Based Learning classes). It is pretty easy to understand, is very concise, and it includes many commmon and uncommon diseases of small animals. However, not all information about specific diseases is included. This resource should just be used as a starting point. The formulary is useful, as is the section about diagnostic test results. I just wish they would come out with a 5-Minute Consult-Exotics Edition

Great user-friendly reference for vet students.......2001-05-23

This book is great when you just need the down and dirty on a disease, and don't want to wade through a 50-page description in the heavy-duty references. It was also very useful during second-year, when you're just trying your hand at figuring out the diseases, and need a little confirmation of your diagnosis and treatment plans. Or, when you're totally clueless and need help get started in the right direction. Fair warning, faculty usually won't accept it as 'reference' especially if you're trying to argue a point, but during a recent open-book final, I brought mine in anyway and there was practically a mob of other students rushing over to check out one thing or another.

5 Minute Veterinary Consult: Canine and Feline (CD-ROM for W.......2001-03-24

Tilley's 5 -Minute Veterinary Consult book has been an extremely valuable asset to my library. When the CD-Rom came out, it was even more useful in that immediate and current information can be retrieved much faster than picking up a book. It is faster since topics related to a case can be searched for and reviewed with a touch of your mouse. This information can be quickly printed and given to clients to further understand their pets diagnosed condition. This printed information alone is priceless! A client that has something in hand and can follow and confirm their veterinarian's diagnosis and treatment, helps establish the trust a client needs to have in their pets doctor.

I reach for my 5- Minute Vet Consult CD-rom more than any other resource in my library. It is very accurate and has a surprising amount of detail to assist in the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of each topic. The drug search is a very helpful formulary for those quick reference needs. The most recent CD has a good number of cytology and radiographic images attached to the topics. These can be enlarged to see more closely the great detail.

In my opinion the 5-Minute Veterinary Consult CD-Rom was one of the best reference investments for my practice. It is definitely the most utilized reference I have. Time is money and this has saved me many steps and thus time and money. Every practice needs this reference without doubt!

Book Description

Raw Food Diet.......2007-09-19

This book is designed for folks who are interested in feeding their dogs a natural diet. It seems to be a precusor to the Barf Diet Books. It is technical in it's approach but describes a recommended diet which takes about two sentences. For anyone who feeds this type of diet to their dogs this book gives an excellent rationale for doing so. Although currently there is a "feud" going on between the author and those involved in BARF diets. In my opinion they are basically the same and only differ at the fringes.

Very interesting.......2007-08-29

Very interesting, however I do feed raw but I don't agree with feeding grains as Lonsdale does. But between him and Billinghurst if everyone would read their books they would never feed kibble again..

Too much about Tom Lonsdale.......2007-02-12

This book is really a lot more about the author than about raw feeding. It seems to centralize on the problems he faced getting his views accepted (raw feeding dogs) If you really want a basic book that is easier to understand and gets right to the point, then purchase his other book - Work Wonders. Has basically the same info, but without all the personal details.

The matyrdom of Tom Londsdale.......2006-08-29

I bought a few books on raw feeding and holistic diets and I have to say this is the worst. It's not even about raw meaty bones. This book is more about how the author feels martyred by both the Australian Vet Association and the pet food industry. I guess this might make an interesting story if thats the kind of thing you want to read about. I just found it a tiresome tirade.

Work Wonders, by the same author, is much more informative about raw feeding and can be downloaded for free at [...].

Good ideas, but boring........2005-12-26

I love the idea of a raw diet for dogs and I agree with his views on commercial petfood.
I just got really sick of reading about dental issues. It seems like 80% of this book is about dental hygeine.
The book should be named "Raw Meaty Bones promote Dental Hygeine", not "Health".

I also feel he should've given more in-depth information on what to feed/ how to feed.
He is also a proponent of feeding wings and backs alone- that is just TOO MUCH BONE.

If you look at a whole prey animal, the percentage of bone in it will be 8%-12%. Chicken wings/ backs alone are 50% bone. They are not a biologically appropriate way of feeding!
He does deserve credit for stating that whole prey is best, though.

Lonsdale has great ideas, but he should've published a separate book about canine dental health, or not gone off about it so much, and his specific diet recommendations are lacking/ somewhat misleading.

Great dual language book to help teach opposites.......2005-11-04

I like this book, because when I read it aloud to my Spanish classes, I know the students sitting closest to me are most likely following the English with their eyes, and learning new vocabulary words because of it.

The pictures are vibrant, and for a translated text, the story flows well. Great way to introduce adjectives to students of various ages, or to build on a workbook curriculum like Flip Flop Spanish.

Fred and Ted are tops in any language........2005-08-18

This is a whimsical book that kids really 'get'. P.D. Eastman's illustrations are wonderful as always, and each page has subtle fun touches that you might not catch the first time; rereading the book is not a chore for adults. The side-by-side upbeat Spanish and English text makes a great primer.

Excellent refference book.......2005-10-16

I found this book to be filled with information on the nutritional needs of both cats and dogs. As A pet owner I always read the pet food lables. Till I read this book I was unaware of how misleading those lables can be. I have come away from this book with a much better understanding of the nutritional needs of my pets and how to feed them to promote health and longevity. I also have gained some insight into how to spot signs of nutritional deficiencies in my pets. Surpisingly two of the writers of this book appear to work for Iams, a rather large and well known pet food company. This book was far from biased for the pet food industry nor did it appear to promote any pet food. This book has changed my view of the pet food industry and I will be be much more cautious in the future. I am revamping my pets' diets today! I feel this book is a must for anyone who owns a cat or a dog.

Written by the pet food industry.......2005-08-18

This book was profoundly disappointing. I expected information on feeding my animals food "fit for human consumption" and from my kitchen (versus store bought). I realized shortly into the book that it was written by experts at Iams Company, a maker of pet food. Their recommendations are based on meeting the Association of American Feed Control Officials (AAFCO) guidelines - a committee developed by the pet food industry when they decided they did not care for the requirements recommended by the Committee of Animal Nutrition of the National Research Council (NRC) of the National Academy of Science.
I did get one good tip from the book on how to clean my kitchen after working with raw meat. Otherwise, there are much better books out there for people looking for healthier pets through the food system.

My 2 1/2 yr old loves this book! It is a great bedtime read. It teaches opposites and colors, and it's one I don't mind reading over and over again. It also conveys that these two dogs are great friends, even though they have totally opposite preferences.

An excellent learning (and bedtime) book........2007-02-11

My little girl loves this story, it's a simple, easy to understand yet entertaining story. I also found it useful for teaching her words, on each page I would ask her to find things for me or I would point at something and aske her to tell me what it was. She thoroughly enjoyed this game and learned a lot of new words through playing it.

Classic right along with Dr Seuss.......2006-02-24

Big Dog ... Little Dog was probably the first book I read on my own. 20 years ago my uncle read all of P D Eastman's stories to me and now I get to read these same stories to his children. The illustrations are beautiful and the stories just as wonderful. No child should grow up without hearing these stories just once.

The only problem is that the stories can be so funny they don't really work as bed time stories, I mean, the dogs do some of the silliest things that will keep your kids laughing for hours after.

the worst adaptation of an original i have ever seen.......2007-08-13

Thank you to the reviewer who warned readers off this by explaining that it is an abridged version. The real "Go Dog Go!" was perhaps my favorite, and certainly my most rememebered, book from my toddler years. It is now one of my toddler son's favorite books by far. This board book version takes about 6-8 images out of the original 60+ pages and is such a poor imitation that it must be an embarrassment to the heirs of this wonderful author and illustrator. Save your $4.99 and buy the original hardback for $4 more. Another classic by PD Eastman is "Big Dog, Little Dog," whose board book version is a fine approximation of the original.

Good, Dog. Good! But DIFFERENT.......2007-06-19

This board book is my two-year-old's favorite. He loves the fact that the pages go by quickly, and he has memorized most of it already and enjoys "reading" it himself.

Here's the CAUTION: If you are expecting this book to be the same as the regular hardback book, you will be VERY DISAPPOINTED. The pictures are taken from the regular book, and the title is the same, but the similarities really end there. The text is very different -- not just abridged, but totally changed in most parts -- and the story lines from the regular book are mostly absent in the board book.

If you want a quick board book that your toddler will enjoy carrying around and reading repeatedly, this is your book. If you want a board book similar to the full book, choose a different title, like "Hand, Hand, Fingers, Thumb."

Typical Suess.......2007-06-12

This is one of the first books my son could read by himself. Lots of repetition in sounds and words.

great for toddlers.......2007-05-14

My two year old can read this by himself and he loves it. A great story for little ones.

Go, Dog,Go!.......2007-01-04

My three boys loved this book. I just bought it for my granddaughter Mila and am so disappointed. The format is wonderful, as it is a Board Book, but in producing the book in this manner the second half of the book was forfeited and that section was the best part of the book. Mila's father was miserable to see that the entire section which asks "Do you like my hat?", is missing. That is the section we all anticipated and enjoyed and remembered so fondly and voila, no "I like your hat. I like your new hat". What a pity!
