#13 Ljekovita za psa
The medicine cabinet for the dog is just as important to own as it is for humans. While people know that medical care in emergencies is secured around the clock by hospitals and emergency doctors, veterinarians are not necessarily available outside of practice opening hours. That's why it's good if there's a 24-hour veterinary clinic nearby. Or find out which veterinarian is otherwise on emergency duty.

#14 2-3% of Beagles are affected by MLS, Musladin Lueke Syndrome
Hereditary disease, MLS, Chinese Beagle Syndrome
Autosomal recessive hereditary disease
MLS is also known as Chinese Beagle Syndrome
Severely restricted mobility
Symptoms vary greatly from person to person
2-3% of British and Australian Beagles are affected.
Musladin-Lueke Syndrome is an autosomal recessive disorder that occurs in Beagles and Beagle crossbreeds. Since some dogs have crooked eyes, the hereditary disease was formerly known as Chinese Beagle Syndrome.
#15 Chinese Beagle Syndrome
Uzrok:
The mutation is located on the ADAMTSL2 gene. Inheritance is autosomal recessive. Carrier dogs do not get sick. However, they pass the defective gene on to their offspring. The development of the connective tissue of organs, skin, muscles, bones, and heart is affected. The skin and connective tissue are abnormal.
Simptomi:
Smaller body;
Flat head;
Slanted, narrow eyes;
Stiff, tight skin;
Skin is very tight in the neck area;
Joints are less mobile;
Joint fibrosis;
Skin fibrosis;
Ears are folded due to the abnormal growth of cartilage;
The dogs walk on the front toe pads: hopping ballerina gait
stiff legs;
Osteoarthritis develops early due to the unnatural gait;
Character: extremely friendly.
The first symptoms are already visible three weeks after birth. They worsen within the first year of life. After that, the hereditary disease stabilizes. The symptoms can vary in intensity between dogs. They range from externally hardly recognizable to severe limitations. In particularly severe cases, seizures also occur.
Beagles with severe Musladin Lueke Syndrome (MLS) die at the age of one year. The quality of life of the affected dogs is severely restricted.
