Hepatitis.

Hepatitis.

Hepatitis.



CHRONIC HEPATITIS.

Liver complaints were once fashionable. A few years ago the mind of Great Britain was in distress about its bile, and blue pill with black draught literally became a part of the national diet. At present nervous and urinary diseases appear to be in vogue; but, with dogs, hepatic disorders are as prevalent as ever. The canine liver is peculiarly susceptible to disease. Very seldom have I dipped into the mysteries of their bodies but I have found the biliary gland of these animals deranged; sometimes inflamed sometimes in an opposite condition often enlarged seldom diminished rarely of uniform color occasionally tuberculated and not unfrequently as fat with disease as those are which have obtained for Strasburg geese a morbid celebrity.
