26
Q

What should you look for when evaluating the decreased behaviour?

A

Breed = physiologic variations

Bright, alert: makes normal response to external stimuli, obvious interest in the surroundings

Dull /apathy: reaction to normal stimuli being retarded, suppressed

Sopor: sleepiness

Dummy, stupor: advanced degree of failure to respond remains standing, capable of movement

Coma: unconscious, fails to respond to even a painful stimuli

27
Q

What should you look for when evaluating the increased behaviour?

A

Nervous, tense, excited, anxious: Increased responsiveness to external stimuli.

Appears alert, but normal movement

Restlessness: movement is almost constant, usually caused by pain (colic:consisting of lying down, rolling, getting up again, kicking the belly)

Mania: extreme form of abnormal behaviour, aberrations appear to be compulsive, vigorous licking, head pressing. frenzy: animal’s action are uncontrolled

28
Q

Describe pathologic behavior:

A
  • Self mutilation
  • Compulsive actions: head-pressing, walking in circle, mania
  • Convulsion, tail chasing, fly biting
  • Aggression
29
Q

What do you look at when you control the posture and locomotion?

A

Position of the:

  • head
  • ear
  • neck
  • trunck

  • weight balance
30
Q

What do you look at when you control the posture and locomotion, when the animal is standing?

A
  • Weight bearing equally on all legs (Bear less weight on one leg)
  • Legs may not be adequately extended or overextended
31
Q

What do you look at when you control the posture and locomotion, regarding the spinal column?

A
  • Arched, sagging back (kyphosis, lordosis, scoliosis)
  • abduction of elbows
  • Stiffly extended neck
32
