General [General]       This is a common affection of dogs, caused by continued exposure to damp and cold from the kennel being placed in a bad situation, and it sometimes follows severe exertion; in the latter case, the dog is what is commonly called chest-foundered; very often the muscles of the fore legs and chest are swollen, and the animal whines if that part is touched; Arnica is the best remedy for this form of disease. For other forms of the disease, Aconite, Bryonia, Rhus toxicodendron and Sulphur will be found useful; the animal must be well cared for, kept dry and warm, and be furnished with plenty of clean straw to lie upon.
