Q

Why are puppies less than 3 weeks of age susceptible to canine herpesvirus disease?

A

because they cannot regulate their body temperature at this time and the virus replicates at a lowered temperature so if the pup is neglected by the mother there is a chance that the pups temp will get too low

glomerulonephritis and lymphoplasmacytic interstitial nephritis

34
Q

What urinary tract diseases are commonly associated with cattle?

A

urolithiasis, pyelonephritis, lymphosarcoma, and bracken fern poisoning

35
Q

What cattle specifically are affectedby urolithiasis?

A

feedlot calves and steers

36
Q

What is ‘water belly’?

A

the result of an obstruction in the sigmoid flexure leading to a ruptured bladder and urine accumulates on the ventral part of the abdomen

37
Q

What is pyelonephritis a consequence of in cattle?

A

impedence of urine flow

38
Q

What bacteria is commonly associated with pyelonephritis in cattle?

A

C. renale

39
Q

What does bracken fern poisoning cause?

A

chronic hemorrhagic cystitis and can cause transitional cell carcinoma

40
Q

What urinary tract diseases are commonly associated with ovine?

A

copper toxicosis and urolithiasis

41
Q

How does copper toxicosis happen?

A

copper accumulates in the liver and some stimulus, maybe stress, can cause a massive release of copper from the liver causing acute hemolysis

42
Q

What lesion is associated with copper toxicosis?

A

hemoglobinuric nephropathy - the kidney becomes dark red or blue

What lesion does PRRS virus cause?

A

interstitial nephritis

45
Q

What can cause acute multifocal renal hemorrhage in swine?

A

septicemia (salmonellosis, actinobacillosis, acue erysipelas) or viremia (classic swine fever or african swine fever)
