Three male beagle dogs (mean age 18 months, mean weight 12.5 kg) were used for the study. All operations and measurements were performed under general anaesthesia using intravenous injections of ketamine hydrochloride (2.5 ml/10 kg; Ketavet 10%, Pfizer, Berlin, Germany) and xylazine hydrochloride (1 ml/10 kg; Xylavet 2%, Sanofi-Aventis, Budapest, Hungary) administered every 15 min. For pain control, Metamizole (1 ml/10 kg; Algopyrin, Sanofi-Aventis, Budapest, Hungary) was injected intramuscularly after completion of the operations and was continued for 3 days. To prevention infections, intramuscular injection of amoxicillin hydrochloride solution (150 mg/ml, 1 ml/10 kg, Pfizer, Berlin, Germany) was administered after surgery for 2 weeks.

The study protocol was in accordance with the European Communities Council Directive of 24 November 1986 (86/609/EEC) and local laws and regulations. It was approved by the Food Safety and Animal Health Protection Board of the Regional Council of Pest/Hungary. The study was carried out at the Research Institute for Animal Breeding and Nutrition, Herceghalom/Hungary, which provided ten male beagle dogs (mean age 8.1 ± 0.9 months, mean weight 12.2 ± 1.3 kg). The dogs were kept in pairs in kennels of five sqm with straw bedding and elevated wooden resting places and were walked twice daily for at least 30 min. They were fed commercially available dog food (Bonafarm, Nagyigmánd/Hungary), and water was provided ad libitum. Surgeries were carried out in general anaesthesia; ketamine hydrochloride (2.5 ml/10 kg; Ketavet 10%, Pfizer, Berlin/Germany) and xylazine hydrochloride (1 ml/10 kg; Xylavet 2%, Sanofi‐Aventis, Budapest/Hungary) were administered intravenously every 15 min. For pain control, intramuscular injections of metamizole (1 ml/10 kg; Algopyrin, Sanofi, ‐Aventis, Budapest/Hungary) were administered for 3 days. Amoxicillin hydrochloride (150 mg, 1 ml/10 kg, Pfizer, Berlin/Germany) was injected intramuscularly for prophylaxis of infections.
About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
