"The reception accorded to the first edition has proved that 

 a small text-book of the kind was distinctly wanted, and in pre- 

 senting a second and enlarged edition the author regrets that 

 illness and other causes have allowed the first to remain so long 

 out of print. 



By the request of numerous friends, the work has been en- 

 larged to include symptoms and general details of treatment other 

 than that which may be described as purely surgical, although the 

 original idea of the author to keep the book as a handy manual for 

 their final-year student has still been adhered to. 



The introduction of antiseptics has revolutionized all of the 

 old-fashioned ideas, and has benefited the animal world to almost 

 as great an extent as that of man. 



It is true that we have not quite the same advantages as our 

 confreres in human surgical practice, but it is astonishing what 

 can be done by strict attention to the principles introduced by the 

 discoveries of Pasteur, and applied to surgery by the teachings of 

 Lister. 



Operations which only a few years ago were looked upon 

 beforehand with dread are now done every day, and owners of pet 

 animals have learned to appreciate the value of modern antiseptic 

 methods almost as much as the members of the profession them- 

 selves." — Extract from Preface.
