Neonatal calf diarrhea (i.e., scours) is one of the predominant causes of calfhood disease, death, and reduced growth. While various pathogens may cause diarrhea, clinical symptoms and case fatality are largely associated with the ensuing dehydration rather than the diarrhea itself. As such, fluid therapy is the most important aspect of treatment, and the appropriate correction of dehydration and acid-base imbalances is critical for clinical success in scours cases. During this webcast, Dr....

Traditional approaches to gastrointestinal parasite control in cattle have relied on the routine application of anthelmintic and endectocide products, often without assessing their necessity or effectiveness. However, the emergence of anthelmintic resistance and growing environmental concerns are rendering this approach unsustainable and increasingly less acceptable to consumers. In this webcast, Dr. John Gilleard will provide an update on anthelmintic resistance, diagnostic tests, and the...

Dairy cows are increasingly being dried off at higher milk production levels, raising concerns about their health and welfare during the dry period. This elevated production can result in problems such as udder engorgement and milk leakage, thereby increasing the risk of new clinical mastitis cases as cows transition into the dry-off phase.
