A Case or Diphtheku.— Early in December last a large liver 

 Belter was brought to this office tor examination. The aiiimal 

 appearedio have Home paialyHin of the lower jaw and looied very 

 badly. Some of the pymptoTiiB seemed to point to rabies, and aa 

 the ease was au obBoure ono we recommended the owner to take 

 the animal to Th-. H. J. Dancer, which was done. Some time later 

 we received from the owner the following letter : 



Patehbos, X. J., December IB. 

 I bronghl home my retiiever from Dancer, last night, almost 

 entirely well. He was a very sick doggie and I think hia cvu-e very 

 orcditahlo to Dancer, as the case seema to have been Bometbing 

 qoit^ out of the naual line. Dancer was modest enough to cou- 

 feaa he was pretty well puzzled at flint— which I liked— but he 

 brongbt close observation of the patient and intelligent tre.itment 

 111 accordance with the Bymptomu to bear, with very gratifying re- 

 BBlte. I am much obliged to you for sending me to hun— no less 

 than foryom' coiu'tesy when I saw yon. J. M. Hoktos. 



At om- request Dr. Dauoer hm prepared the following report of 

 the ease. It is very clear and deserves the careful conBideration of 

 all dog lovers and especially of medicine men. The report is as 

 lollowe : 



On Wednesday, December 8, a dog was brought to my oiilce pre- 

 senting the following symptoms : Great general emaciation ; face 

 pinched; expression anxious; tongue covered with a thick yeUowiHh 

 white scum, extending into pharynx ; thi'oat very tender to touch; 

 oocaaion:i] tremors : a ropy saliva exuded from mouth, which was 

 open four inches by actual meaam-emeut ; the teeth of lower jaw- 

 were exposed : the power of Bwallowiug completely gone. The 

 three latter symptoms were due to paralysis of the muscles of mas- 

 tication and deglutition, as well as the buccinator. I offered the ani- 

 mal BoniH water. He plunged his head into it greedily, making at- 

 tempt alter attempt to cb-ink, but failed to swallow a drop. I elevated 

 his head iinil ponied some do^va his throat. It stiu'tcd a lit of 

 ooughing. I mixed up a pill consisting of a nervine and stimu- 

 lant. It passed down readily, the weight of the material forcmg 

 the glottis domi, a circumstance readily understood by any one 

 nnderstaiKling the anatomy and physiology of the pai't. 



I had huu removed to comfortable quarters, where for the fol- 

 lowing few days I gave him food in a semi-cold condition, and 

 fliiida thi-ongt ii tube which I passed into the esophagus ; admin- 

 istering medicine to him in the pill form and Bometimes through 

 the tube with food. 



The history of the case is as foUowB : He had been taken sick 

 fom- days before, showing the same svmptoms, only in a milder 

 form. Thev kept getting worse until they reached then- present 

 exaggerated state. He had been taken to several veterinary sur- 

 geons of repute, but aU had failed to either alleviate the animal or 

 Bee what was the matter with hun. 



The following day his condition was unchanged, except that the 

 salva How-mg from mouth was of a more ropy consistency. I now 

 diagnosed diphtheiia. Up to this time I was nuwilling to say J'osi- 

 tively what was the matter with the dog, although my suspiciona 

 were aroused almost from the iirst. I did not feel justifled in 

 coming to this conclusion iu less time. The reasons are obvious. 

 The deeease is one of the rarest which attacks the canine race, if 

 not the rarest. I had never seen a ease. There is no record of it 

 having attacked an animal in tliifi country : no native author 

 gives a description of it; and but few foreign ones mention it, 

 and even among the latter it is not a settled question. It is 

 almost invariably fatal, and I felt but little hope of saving the 

 animal, so that I was agreeably surprised to ihid some improve- 

 ment iu his condition the foUowiug day. 



The secretions from mouth were leas ; scum on tongue some- 

 what diminished : tremors had left ; face less pinched : espres- 

 sion more natural; paralysis improving, though he could not 

 swaUowaayet; lever abating. Next day but one there waa atfU 

 greater improvement ; the secretions from mouth disappeared, 

 aud, with ditiicuUy, be succeeded in BwaUovving a few drops of 

 water. Fortv-eight hours later the only symptoms remaining were 

 a furred tongue and slight tenderness of throat ; he was still very 

 weak. His convalescence was short. I returned him to his owner 

 the following Wednesday cured. He waa in my poasession but 

 Beven days. 



A few remarks on diphtheria in the dog may not be out of 

 rilace, thev will at least show what a rare disease it is, and how 

 f.ital. 



It has been mistaken for dumb rabies ; some of the symptoms 

 resemble these of that affection. Mr. Eobertson, of England, 

 mention.* ;in uutlneak of between thirty and forty cases, with only 

 thi-ee or tour recoveries. Prof. Wilhams, in his immense practice, 

 mentions but four, with no recoveries. Hill also mentions a few 

 with a small per cent, of recoveries. Wilhams claima that it is not 

 contagious, though hia experiments are not, to my mind, sufficient 

 to leave tlie matter beyond doubt. On post morlfm the cavities of 

 the heart, the large blood vossela and kidneys are engorged with 

 black fluid blood, the poricardeal sac contains an increased amount 

 of fluid. 



Iu Aug., 1875, cases similar to the above cropped out in England 

 which were taken at fh-st for dumb rabies, and many animals were 

 Miled before the tme nature of the disease was discovered. 



,T. H. Dancee, V. 8. 



We may repeat here what we have previously said, that the 

 Columbia Veterinary College, No. 217 East 3-lth at, this city, has 

 kindly oflered to make post morlem exanunations of any specimens 

 sent them, and to report on the same through our columns. The 

 (mimal must be boxed and sent to the college liy exiiress, ehargee 

 prepaid. This an-angement will admit of om- treating diseiiHes of 

 an epidemic character in the most direct way, which may lead to 

 the saving of many valuable animals of the same kenuei

 is well perhaps to beexact so as to avoid all future misunderstand- 

 ing, and so I take the libertv of wTiting as above.
