_Dose_: Half[1] to two teaspoonfuls; repeat in one hour if it has not caused vomiting. When sickness stopped, commence following mixture:— _Recipe_: Liq. Morphia, 1 drachm. Hoffmann’s Spirits, 2 drachms. Paregoric, 1½ drachms. Ipecacuanha Wine, 1 drachm. Syrup of Squills, 1 ounce. Water to 3 ounces. _Dose_: One teaspoonful to a tablespoonful[1] every four or six hours. Apply hot linseed meal poultices to throat and front of chest. Give aperient medicine. The emetic, if the cough and breathing remain bad, may be repeated in two days. When the active symptoms have passed and the cough better, petroleum emulsion may be given. During early stages light diet should be given; later meat. [Illustration: THE COPTHORNE BRUSSELS GRIFFONS.

W. [_face p. 30._] =Bronchitis (Chronic Husk)=: _Symptoms_: Though the dog may appear very well, with good appetite, there is a frequent dry, hard cough, which is generally worse at night and early morning, but any exertion or excitement induces a fit of coughing. After each attack, the dog retches as if he had something in his throat, and was going to vomit. _Treatment_: Give aperient medicine occasionally, and the following mixture:— _Recipe_: Tinct. Nux Vomica, 24 drops. Ipecacuanha Wine, 1 drachm. Water to 3 ounces. _Doses_: One teaspoonful to a tablespoonful[1] three times a day. When cough is very troublesome give a dose of the mixture recommended for acute bronchitis at night, or from fifteen[1] drops to one teaspoonful of Smith’s glyco-heroin in a little water. _Diet_: The diet in these cases is very important, and I find under-done meat the best possible food, as it nourishes the dog well without distending the stomach and causing pressure on the chest. =Bruises=: _Symptoms_: Discoloration of the skin from effusion of blood under result of injury. _Treatment_: Apply following lotion often:— _Recipe_: Goulard’s Extract Lead, 1 drachm. Liquor Opium, 1 drachm. Distilled Water to 8 ounces. When in a suitable part, so that a bandage may be applied, the lotion is more efficacious if applied on lint, which should be covered over with a piece oil silk, and then a bandage. Give aperient medicine, and keep dog at rest for a few days. =Burns=: _Symptoms_: The skin may be scorched and the coat frizzled, but the roots not destroyed; or the skin may be destroyed and a large blister form, which sooner or later suppurates. Burns, the result of boiling water, are practically as severe as those of fire, for in either case the hair never grows afterwards.
